Antique B&H Beech and Hancock Water Jugs x Two! 19th Century. Hand-painted; Ironstone (?) One with a ‘Jewelled Pendent’ type design; the other with a wide patterned band with floral detail. Both have Pearlised paint finish.

Jewel jug = 8” inches tall (20.5cm) to tip of spout.

Other stands 7 1/4” inches tall (18.5cm)

Both jugs are in good antique condition with no restoration. No chips; no cracks; and no hairlines. The jewel jug has very tight craquelure glaze crazing; (clear; not stained and not immediately obvious) The straighter-sided jug has no crazing. Just slight age-related brown patches on the handle (photos 17 & 18) There’s some wear to the brown rim with a slight glaze rub on the spout (last three photos)
