Product Description

Synopsis

Although the concept of the jug is a very simple one, human ingenuity has led to a considerable variety of size, shape and decoration. Some shapes are both functional and appealing, while others fail badly on one or both counts. In this illustrated guide to English jugs from medieval times to the present, the author considers them in terms of the techniques used for their decoration, and within each chapter has grouped them accordingly, with three exceptions - jugs made of porcelain and fine china, brown stoneware jugs, and novelty jugs.
