\"Minton<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Model Number: 335<\/p>\n

A sophisticated interpretation of a traditional beer mug, originally used to collect beer from a public house or shop. The decoration appropriately shows travellers seeking refreshment. One side represents traditional coach travel and the other shows modern railway travel.<\/p>\n

Designed by Henry James Townsend (1810-1890) for Felix Summerly’s Art Manufactures.<\/p>\n

The ‘Two Drivers’ jug was made first in about 1847 in white stoneware with a brown background (model no. 295). This was followed by parian version (model no. 334), then a single-coloured stoneware version in pale buff (model no. 335) and in a reddish-brown terracotta (model no. 336). It was illustrated in the Journal of Design and Manufactures in December 1849, when it was described as ‘made in more than one material and of several colours’.<\/p>\n"},"caption":{"rendered":"
