ALLERTONS ENGLISH ANTIQUE COPPER LUSTER JUG

COMMENT: This is a later production of the earlier Victorian copper luster jugs. Consequently the difference between this jug and the earlier Victorian productions is evident in the texture of pottery and color of copper luster. This jug has less sheen and a much darker luster finish.

HISTORY OF COPPER LUSTERWARE

At the time, there were a number of Staffordshire factories producing these luster pieces. Attribution to specific potters was not really possible since most luster ware pieces of the early vintage were unmarked. However as we all know from experience and research, all of this ware was definitely from the Staffordshire district in England.

CONDITION: Excellent! A photo of the backstamp was not available at this time; it will be inserted at a later date or immediately upon request.
