Rare 19th Century Unmarked Tall Toby Jug with Old Man’s Face – 27cm Brown Glazed Soft Paste Ceramic

19th-century Toby-style character jug, featuring the sculpted face of an old man. This impressive jug, standing 27cm tall, is crafted from white, soft paste porous ceramic and finished with a rich mottled brown trickle glaze, giving it a distinct vintage character.

Estimated to date between 1830 and 1870, this unmarked jug showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of early earthenware production. The white soft paste body beneath the brown glaze creates a beautiful contrast and highlights the intricate facial details.

Despite its considerable age, this jug remains in good condition, with expected age-related crazing present in the glaze but no cracks or repairs. With a generous capacity of approximately 2 liters, it is both decorative and functional.
