About the Item

An English majolica four fish jug, attributed to Adams and Bromley, circa 1875-1880. This whimsical Victorian Era pitcher is formed as four, side by side upright fish, standing on their tails. A smaller fish bends to form the handle. Predominately glazed in a deep reflective green/gray/ black, the fish have brown fins and white bellies. The jug has a mustard yellow pouring lip and base, and a deep pink interior. John Adams & Co. produced majolica under the name The Victoria Works on St. James Street in Hanley, Staffordshire, from 1864 to 1873. The Victoria Works was taken over and run by Adams & Bromley until 1886. Adams & Bromley majolica was rarely marked., but collectors are able to attribute their wares by their distinctive mold work and glazing. 7 in. L x 5 in. W x 9.5 in. H Excellent antique conditions.
