Masons' Arms  –  Tyne jugs


Attributed to Robert Maling, Ouseburn Bridge Pottery or...
​Bird & Co, North Shields, 1823–1826?


Wheat-ear decorated jug – pre-1828

Picture
This appears to be the earliest incarnation of imprints from this transfer plate.  Note in the first detail below the diagonal shading around the beehive and 7 bees.
The last jug below is particularly well decorated with a bluebell motif, and dated 1826.

Cornfoot, Colville & Co, North Shields, 1828–1832


Wheat-ear decorated jug – 1828

Picture
By 1828 the transfer plate had been re-engraved,  Note there are now only 6 bees, and horizontal shading overlays the diagonal shading around the beehive.

​Cornfoot, Carr & Co, North Shields, 1832–1838


Green-flecked decorated jug – group 1

Picture
Below another jug from this plate with a transfer of Hope under the spout, replacing the hand-painted anchor in earlier wares.

Later examples of these jugs have yellow enamels.
Picture
The left photo is a detail from the jug above, inscribed 1833.  The centre detail is from the 1828 wheat-ear jug above. Both have diagonal marks (circled in red on the middle photo)  that do not appear on the pre-1828 wheat-ear jug (right detail).  It appears that all the items above came from the same transfer plate, re-engraved at various points over a long period of use.

Green-flecked decorated jug – group 2

Picture
This transfer comes from a different plate to all those above.  Note, the row of blocks above the words Mason's Arms are not diagonally shaded (see below).
