Antique Malkin Pottery Field Sports Jug
This is an antique pottery jug manufactured by Malkin & Co of Burslem, England. The jug is decorated with a transfer-printed scene depicting a field sports hunt, featuring figures on horseback and hounds. The jug is numbered ‘3’ and is part of a series of field sports themed transferware pieces. The design is executed in a reddish-brown transfer against a cream-coloured background, typical of the period.
Condition and Collectibility
The jug exhibits signs of age and wear consistent with its antique status. There are no significant chips or cracks, though some minor crazing to the glaze is present. This jug would be a desirable addition to a collection of antique transferware, particularly for those interested in sporting scenes or pottery from the Burslem region. The numbered series adds to its collectibility, making it a unique and interesting piece.
