This glass and silver plated claret jug with a gently flared, pear-shaped glass body that tapers upward into a narrower neck. The top section—including the hinged lid, spout, and a banding collar—is made of silver plate, the ebonised handle is mounted between two silver end-caps.
With its restrained ornament, clean lines, and purposeful design, this claret jug exemplifies the innovative spirit of late Victorian design reform and the stylistic vocabulary championed by Dr. Christopher Dresser.
