Vintage Staffordshire Ironstone Jug, English Country Floral Pitcher, Botanical Vase

Isn’t this just absolutely stunning? I fell in love with this gorgeous vintage ironstone jug, which perfectly captures the charm of an English country garden. It’s a beautiful, characterful piece that’s ready to bring a touch of timeless style to your home.

Features: This lovely jug is crafted from sturdy, cream-coloured ironstone, a hallmark of Staffordshire potteries. It features a classic fluted body with an elegant scalloped rim and a beautifully shaped handle. The jug is adorned with vibrant and detailed floral transferware, showcasing what appears to be wild roses, rosehips, daisies, and other wildflowers in a scattered, botanical style. The base bears the “Victoria Ironstone Staffordshire England” maker’s mark, complete with the Royal Arms.

Measurements (Approximate):

• Height: 20cm (7.9 inches)
• Width (including handle and spout): 11.5cm (4.5 inches)
• Depth: 9.5cm (3.7 inches)

Condition: Presented in good vintage condition. As a pre-loved item, it shows some authentic signs of its history. There are some light surface scratches and minor areas of staining on the base, around the handle joints, and on the top rim, which is common for ironstone of this age. There is also some light crazing to the glaze, particularly on the base. Please view all the photos closely, as they form part of the description and showcase its unique character.

Styling Ideas:

• Flower Vase: An absolutely perfect vessel for a bouquet of fresh or dried flowers, bringing a touch of cottagecore charm to a mantelpiece or side table.
• Kitchen Decor: Use it as a utensil holder or simply display it on a Welsh dresser or open kitchen shelving for a rustic, farmhouse feel.
• Water Pitcher: Bring it to the dining table as a beautiful water jug for guests – a true conversation starter!
