Description

Worcester Fence Pattern Sparrow Beak Jug c1775

Worcester Blue and White 11B.9

It is not unusual for the “beaks” to become chipped and this is no exception. This is shown in the photographs. Worcester Crescent mark to base. This is the ideal vessel for pouring spirits or adding water to whisky into a period dram glass or tumbler. It adds genuine appeal to any dining table and they have raised eyebrows at dinner parties ” …you really use this ?”. This is most definitely an antique that must be used. despite the frowns of serious Worcester collectors. Blue and white compliments period glass so very well. particularly on a wooden table. No other chips. cracks or restoration other than mentioned and this is reflected in the price. It stands 12cms high
