Historic JOLLY JUG. Pours from base on demand. Made by Elsmore and Forster c.1860s. With transfers of a Tiger and the famous Clown, Joseph Grimaldi who was often depicted by Elsmore and Forster on these joke jugs. What makes this such an exceptional rarity is the transfer in reverse of "The Friendly Sawyers Society". This appears to be an early Staffordshire "Trade Union". It shows all the tools of the Sawyer and Woodworker: - Saw pit, Timber stack, Saws, Set Square, Folding Rule, etcetera. The spout has a nasty crack which has presumably been glued back and it is stained under the craquelure likely after sitting on a cottage mantle piece over the fire for many years. Both defects could easily be rectified by a competent restorer; however we have had this jug for nearly 40 years always considered its defects to be part of its history and charm as it is fully functional as is. We have failed to discover anything about "The Friendly Sawyers Society". A great research project for someone. Perfect gift for a Woodworker or Social Historian. N857-dup of N858 |

Very curious Decanter with ground glass stopper. The sides have been pinched in in 5 places leaving 5 connections between top and bottom. It has also been bent. The result is an amusing looking decanter which glugs when it pours. Liquor has been left in it too long and the inside of the base need a good cleaning. |
