Beschrijving
Jug with cricket figures in relief, 1906-1915. Pottery, Leeds, cream underglaze, convex sides. Decoration: figures in relief sprigged onto cream base in the following order: Wm. Clark, Fuller Pilch, Box, and captioned. Overglaze colour: flame jackets, black top hats and shoes; other details in brown, yellow and green; neck of jug bears droplet decoration. The figures are based on aquatints by C. Hunt, but the identification of the bowler as Clark (sic) is possibly a compliment to the North as infact this figure resembles the aquatint of Wm. Lillywhite. Stamped: Leeds Pottery. Marketed by Slee of Leeds.
Leeds Pottery Jugs 1906-15
Jugs like this were made by James Wraith Senior and his son, George William Senior, in the first decade of the present century.
The figures in relief are sprigged on from Staffordshire moulds after engravings of Fuller Pilch, William Lillywhite and Thomas Box. However, on the Leeds jugs Lillywhite had been renamed William Clark(e).
E.R. Wilson bequest, 1957.
