Description
Generous in scale and richly decorated, this H&K Tunstall cream jug in the Autumn pattern is a particularly fine example of the Tunstall potteries' hand-painted earthenware tradition.
The deep cobalt blue ground is offset by warm ochre tones and bold hand-painted fruit decoration, with a prominent grape motif lending the piece an additional layer of decorative interest. The substantial size, shaped handle, and glossy glaze give it a commanding presence suited to display as much as use.
Maker: H&K Tunstall · Dimensions: 12 cm (H) × 14.5 cm (W) · Condition: Very Good · Period: 20th century, Autumn pattern
A bold and collectible piece for admirers of English hand-painted ceramics — pairs naturally with the H&K Tunstall Autumn Fruit Decorated Flared Vase and the H&K Tunstall Fruit Decorated Scalloped Ceramic Dish in this collection.
