A charming piece of English advertising pottery from Staffordshire's golden age of ceramic production. This whimsical jug features a bear clutching a small dog—a delightful novelty design that speaks to the era's playful approach to functional wares.
Hand-thrown and glazed with character, this piece combines utility with humour. The bear-form handle and detailed modelling showcase the craftsmanship typical of Staffordshire potteries. Perfect for collectors of British ceramics, advertising memorabilia, or anyone drawn to quirky antique vessels with personality and provenance.
A rare find that captures the spirit of vintage English pottery craftsmanship.
Unsure exact age but is old as has some crazing to glaze, i can see no maker stamps just study pictures , repro's sell for more than i am asking unsure if original or a old reproduction but is not modern,.
originals are 19th century this is a 20th century , large cool figure priced fair in great condition
