Castle Hedingham by Edward Bingham – The Essex Jug
The largest and arguably the most decorative of pieces produced by Edward Bingham – an 1896 example of which is housed in the Fitzwilliam Museum University of Cambridge, being part of the Dr J W L Glaisher collection.
This particular example of The Essex Jug is by far the prettiest we have seen and is certainly of museum quality, pre-dating that in the Fitzwilliam Museum (mentioned above) having the following, ‘Essex 1894’ and ‘Edward Bingham, Castle Hedingham’ and a stylised castle incised on the base. Depicting three medallion scenes of Essex, The Dunmow Flitch trial and, Boadicea, with extremely attractive and numerous applied decorative motifs, plaques and fine detail with blue accents amongst other relief and heraldic emblems, badges, coins and agricultural features such as ears of corn, as well as having, ‘The Essex Jug’ inscribed around the foot of the jug. The medallion showing the Dunmow Flitch trial displays a banner inscribed ‘Live and Love’ which may well have given rise to The Essex Jug being given as a wedding gift in the past.
Condition: Exceptional
Size: 15¾”/40cm High
