Description
Four Beefeaters, each with light color variants. One unique jug does not have factory backstamp. The other three have Royal Doulton backstamps. The Yeomen of the Guard and warders of the Tower of London are colloquially referred to as Beefeaters. The name Beefeater came from a visiting Grand Duke who was astonished by the large amounts of beef eaten by the Yeoman Guards. The monarchs cipher, GR, at the base of the handle is an abbreviation of George Rex, for King George VI. After his death in 1953, the cipher was changed to ER (Elizabeth Regina), for Queen Elizabeth II.
