Gluggle Jug.

Product Information

While the Gluggle Jug was first created in the 1870s by potters Thomas Forester & Son in Stoke-on-Trent, the jugs are commonly associated with Dartmouth Pottery, who produced a fish-shaped water jug called the 'Gurgling Fish Jugs'. Given the royal seal of approval, a special pair of jugs were made in 1958 for the Queen and Prince Philip on their visit to Britannia Naval College. When creating this commemorative piece, we strived to produce a gluggle jug fit for royalty, and we believe that we've done just that. While this quirky decanter is the ultimate way to impress guests at dinner, Gluggle Jugs can also be used for decorative purposes, as ornaments for a sideboard or coffee table, or displaying flowers. Many popular brands include water jugs and carafes in their collections so you can create a unified look in your home and on the table. For example, the German brand Nachtmann includes elegant crystal carafes in their Jules and Noblesse collections.

These were made large size only of blue dyed clay and clear glazed. These were mould lettered also white highlighted by hand before final glazing with ; ‘Plymouth Gin The Spirit of the West’ or ‘ The Spirit of England’ spread from fish gills to base of the pot. A few can be found lettered with ‘For a Plymouth Man’ and are scarcer, possibly because they were made for a sales promotion that may have been run only in the USA. These jugs are believed to have been made from the 1950’s, and started during the period when ceramic colours were still restricted after the war, hence the use of blue dye in the white clay. In addition to pouring water, a stylish water pitcher is also the perfect vessel for other drinks such as juice, ice-tea and specific wines. Water jugs in stoneware will add a natural and rustic expression to your table setting and contribute towards a relaxed atmosphere.
