Georgian Bristol blue panel-moulded cream jug

This is a Georgian, mouth-blown, panel-moulded, blue coloured glass cream jug dating from the turn of the 18th/19th centuries, c1800. The jug is in excellent condition for its age. This means of course that it shows age related wear and tear to the rim of the base consistent with some 200 years of use. It has a rough pontil mark on the underside of the base. The jug has a baluster-shaped bowl measuring 5.7 cm (2.2 inches) in diameter at the pouring rim. The bowl is panel-moulded from top to bottom. The jug is 8.5 cm (3.4 inches) across at its widest point (pouring spout to outside of the handle) and is 8 cm (3.2 inches) in height. The handle was first applied to the top of the bowl and then finished off at the bottom of the bowl with a curlicue. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any other obvious evidence of restoration. There are a number of tiny inclusions in the metal of the bowl dating from manufacture. There is a collector’s sticker to the base. A pretty, period jug weighing in at 80 g. (~ 3 oz.). Quote item: 8756 Please note: 1. All prices quoted are exclusive of postage.
