Description

This is a good large Sunderland pink lustre jug probably by Dixons, with transfer print of the New Cast Iron bridge over the river Wear completed in 1796. This features a transfer of the clipper ship Northumberland to the other side and the sailors verse “Forget me not” to the front with the monogram M. C. The jug is in really great condition for its age with only a small historic repair to the spout evident.
The jug dates from around 1800. Sunderland lustreware came from North East potteries Scott’s, Dixon & co, Balls, Garrison Pottery Moores, Maling, St, Anthony’s, Sherif Hill and Fords pottery all manufacturing throughout the early 1800s.
This jug is substantial in size so quite a looker measuring 24 cms high by 30 cms wide (spout to handle).
