Description:

Jugs were a staple product for the potters, particularly from the later 18th century onwards, and since most households would need several, the potential market was vast. The more decorative jugs sold much more readily, and despite the fact that they were utilitarian by nature, many attractive jugs were produced. They have survived in large numbers, and since they are easy to display, either singly or as a collection, they are popular with virtually all collectors. In this illustrated guide the author has considered jugs in terms of the techniques used for their decoration, and in this way he has grouped them within appropriate chapters. With over 800 illustrations, this fascinating book will provide an invaluable reference for all collectors, dealers and enthusiasts.
