Two pearlware jugs and a mug, circa 1805-10
Elaborately printed in brown with two oval cartouches reserving a portrait of Nelson and the Victory engaged in battle, flanking an extensive list of Nelson's titles, with borders of trophies, scrolling foliage and oak leaves, the rims and handles edged in ochre enamel, the print hand-coloured on the smaller jug, 8.8cm - 15.4cm high (3)
Footnotes:
See lot 128 in this sale for the same printed decoration in blue.

The mug and smaller jug are both in good condition, save for a short semi-circular crack in the rim of the mug, which may have occurred during manufacture. With typical crazing to the glaze.
The larger jug: The spout including a small section of the rim has been broken and restuck. This is just visible in the catalogue photo. An associated hairline approximately 5cm long runs diagonally from the rim to the shoulder of the jug above the portrait of Nelson. Otherwise, there are two small and shallow chips to the outer edge of the rim, one of which has an associated short crack and a tiny shallow loss to the interior rim at this point. There are several tiny glaze losses and scratches to the body, none of which are significant.
