Redhead, Wilson & Co, Forth Banks, Newcastle Pottery – 1833–1838
A small jug from the Newcastle Pottery with typical yellow band decoration from the 1830s.
Thanks to Allison Harig at the Shelburne Museum for providing the images of this jug: 'Unidentified maker, An East View of the Iron Bridge Lustre Jug, 1830–50. Earthenware, 9 1/4 x 11 1/4 in. Collection of Shelburne Museum. 31.2-8. Photography by Andy Duback'.
Although the jug has no inscription, the hand-painted enamelling seemed fine enough to merit inclusion on this page. The jug has Baker's bridge 6 transfer.
