About the Item

This is a fine and rare, large ironstone pottery jug or pitcher in the Fenton shape made by Mason's Ironstone, of Lane Delph, Staffordshire, England, circa 1820 This is a substantial large heavy example weighing about 1.25 Kg unpacked and indicative of the early pieces, which had more iron in the boy material. The jug is octagonal with a dragon loop handle. The piece is profusely and richly hand- decorated with bold enamels of cobalt blue, burnt orange, red, salmon and green, all in different shades with much additional gilded detail. The pattern is generally known as the "SCHOOL HOUSE" pattern but it is also listed in some books as the "GAY JAPAN" pattern with the Masons Collectors Club listing it as the "ROSE AND APPLE" pattern. It is unmarked to the base as is often the case with Mason's pieces of this type and age, but is definitely a Masons Ironstone piece.
