English Pearlware Toby Jug
Early English pearlware Toby jug, hand-painted in a palette of blue, orange, brown, and cream. The jug is modeled as a seated figure of a jovial man dressed in a tricorn hat, striped breeches, and patterned coat, holding a tankard of ale in both hands. The molded spout forms the brim of the hat, and the handle is integrated into the back of the figure. Glazed earthenware body with visible crazing consistent with age. This jug exemplifies traditional English Toby jug design popularized in the late 18th and 19th centuries.
