EDITORS COMMENTS
This large water jug, a beautiful example of Bairnsfather Ware, displays intricate details and historical significance. The jug, with a 2-inch crack by the lip, carries an inscription that reads "Dear - At present we are staying at a farm." The reverse side of the jug showcases a shield with the Royal Coat of Arms, adding to its grandeur. Despite its poor condition, with an additional chip to the base, this jug holds a special place in history. Bairnsfather Ware, named after its creator, Sir William Barnes-Graham, was a popular china and pottery brand during the early 20th century. Known for its high-quality, intricate designs, and historical motifs, Bairnsfather Ware became a staple in British households. This particular jug, with its inscription, can be traced back to the era of World War I and World War II. The inscription suggests that it was a thoughtful gift for someone staying at a farm during those times. The jug's design, with its regal coat of arms, adds an air of elegance and sophistication to the rural setting. Bairnsfather Ware's historical significance lies in its ability to capture the essence of the era, from its intricate designs to its functional purpose. This large water jug is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the time, making it a valuable addition to any historical collection or antique enthusiast's display.
