Hunting Jug, Mid 19th century

This is a stoneware hunting jug. They come in many shapes some with longer necks, some squatter. This would have been a very popular design, with the hound on the handle, and then a hunting scene, with huntsman and hounds and of course horses. These are all done in low relief.  The stone ware glaze has a wonderful quality to it and comes glazed and unglazed the two always together. It adds charm to the jug.  Used for milk and cream.
