Circa: 1856
Manufacturer: J. Wedgwood
What a beautiful large white ironstone pitcher this is! This is Fig Shape, made in the pottery of John Wedgwood. It bears the pottery's imprinted stamp and the English registry mark.
It measures 11 inches tall and is free of all chips and cracks. Some crazing is evident. Any and all lines are only in the glaze.
Fig Shape is prized among collectors. It was registered in 1856 by both the J. Wedgwood pottery of Tunstall and the Davenport pottery of Longport. This pitcher looks wonderful, especially considering its 150+ years of existence!
We love the fig foliate and fruit embossing along the lower part of the ewer's belly and the paneling on the sides. The spout and base are nicely bordered. Note also the design of the handle. |
