• Maker Brampton Pottery • Item: Toby Jug and cover • Circa: 1820-30 • Origin: Derbyshire, UK • Material: Salt Glaze • Colour: Good orange peel colour • Dimensions: 10inches (25.5cm) approx • Rarity: Very Rare • Condition: Good condition, flake to front of tricorn hat, no repairs - note: usual original firing cracks as associated with early pottery and in particular usual production of early Toby Jugs • Price: £1,400 (sterling) / $2,300 approx - price excludes postage and insurance • Reference: i. Castle Museum Nottingham Collection (similar toby in collection) ii. A Collectors History of English Pottery - Griselda Lewis - Antique Collectors Club - Page • A Short History of the Brampton Potties: Collectors are probably familiar with the label 'Brampton ware' as referring to the more ornate sprig decorated pieces such as puzzle jugs, toast racks, jugs, teapots and coffee pots, made from an almost white clay which gives a light honey surface and in good examples vivid orange peel colouring in a salt firing. However the Brampton potteries also made pots with a dark brown colour more usually associated with pottery made in Nottingham. In the eighteenth century, Nottingham had become so famous for its finely made brown pottery, that 'Nottingham ware' became the generic name for all dark brown saltglaze made in the Midlands, although no items can be attributed to Nottingham after 1800. The Brampton potteries made types of ware that were very similar to each other, but individual factories also specialised in particular lines. Large quantities of bottles, kegs and barrels, jam jars, stew and saucepots, storage jars, flat dishes, turtle and beef pots, bowls, pudding moulds, colanders and water filters were produced, besides the rare and in some cases very rare ornamental pieces such as toby jugs, ink wells, figurines etc... Only a few pieces of Brampton ware are marked and therefore individual pots are difficult to attribute to specific factories. The issue is further confused by the fact that the potteries worked co-operatively and might contract work to another factory in the area if they received a large order, and in some instances workmen would move from one factory to another. icollect, London, UNITED KINGDOM • We specialize in rare and novelty antiques but also cater for all tastes and price ranges. • If you are unsure about any item or would like further details please contact us first, we respond to all E-Mails within 24 hours unless otherwise stated (i.e. if we are away and uncertain about having internet access available).

The piece was given to the V&A by the Commisioners of the Great Exhibition of 1851. The Victoria & Albert description: Design & Designing Minton's designed the 'Silenus' jug in about 1831 and it proved to be one of their most popular earlier designs, to such an extent that it was copied by Mason and by Doulton. It was first issued in light green, then dark green. This blue version is model number 235. Minton even issued the jug in an experimental pre-Parian version though this is quite rare. Subject Depicted Silenus was a god of Bacchus' retinue. A merry, rotund old drunkard, he was nevertheless credited with wisdom and prophetic powers. He is usually shown leading Bacchus' triumphal procession, on an ass and supported by satyrs.   « Less
