Re: Transferware mystery #1
Hi Elisa. The shape of your jug appears to be about the 1830s. Sorry, I don't know the pattern or who might have made it. The seamless application of a transfer could often be difficult on a shape like this, which might explain all the uneven joins in the design. As for the glaze, the roughness, and pitting especially on the bottom, makes me wonder if somebody tried to clean this with bleach. That can wreak havoc with glaze over time. Sorry I can't be more help!
