Description:
This earthenware jug was presumably designed for the nursery. Children must have been delighted at finding the animals printed on both the outside and inside, and even underneath. Perhaps the cow underneath is a clue that a main use for the jug in the nursery was expected to be for milk.BACK TO CATALOG INDEX
