This wonderful, original Sunderland pink lustre ware jug has been carefully looked after! - It bears the underglaze transfer prints of Mariner's Compas to one side and a Sailor's Farewell to the other "Far from home across the sea, To foriegn climes I go, While far away O think of me, And I'll remember you" - impressed to the base with mark 1399 it shows minor age related signs to the base, but there are no hairlines or damage evident. A small circular shaped mark to the right hand side of the Sailor's Farewell, could be firing flaw, but does not detract - Standing c. 5" inch tall with a base diameter of 2.3/4" inch, it has an unusually shaped handle - difficult to pick real fault with this fabulous piece, dating c. 1880-1900 - this is a particular fine example - and will certainly not disappoint - nice low start as this little beauty will find its own value !
