James Dudson "Argyle" Pattern Stoneware Jug with Hinged Pewter Lid, c1865
A striking piece of Victorian kitchenware from James Dudson's pottery, this relief-molded stoneware jug features the distinctive Argyle pattern and retains its original hinged pewter lid. Dated December 23, 1865, this versatile vessel served multiple purposes in period households—as a hot water jug to keep beverages warm, a syrup or molasses server, or an ale pitcher. The hinged lid sealed in heat while protecting contents from dust and insects, making it both beautiful and functional.
An authentic example of mid-19th century English pottery craftsmanship, perfect for collectors of antique serve ware and vintage kitchen décor.
