Bidspirit auction | English earthenware jug and basin.
English earthenware jug and basin. English School. 19th - 20th century. - Stamped earthenware. Dimensions: 30 x 40 cm. A jug and basin set in English earthenware from the Staffordshire factory in Hanley, decorated in burgundy and white with cherubic scenes and plant motifs in medallions. The ornamentation, applied by stamping and manual embossing, reflects the decorative richness characteristic of Victorian earthenware from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The contrast between the white glaze and the intense burgundy colour provides visual dynamism, while the figurative design reinforces the bourgeois and sentimental character of the piece. An object that is both functional and artistic, linked to Staffordshire production, renowned for its quality and aesthetic variety.
