Maker: Bell Pattern: Triumphal Car
Made by J & MP Bell & Co. of Glasgow, Scotland. Lovely 12 sided panelled shape jug in Bell's typical chunky style. It is almost large enough to qualify as an ewer.
The glaze is finely crazed, with a small area of light staining. There is a firing fault at the base of the handle, which occurred during manufacture. There is a discrete hairline running down from the rim for about 1". Near the base is a short line in the glaze that does not go through to the inside. That is the detailed description! It is actually a rather fine jug in good condition.
