Royal Doulton Series Ware Tall Jug Pitcher POPPIES A D4012 GENUINE ANTIQUE
ROYAL DOULTON TALL JUG/PITCHER. ITEM: Royal Doulton tall jug or pitcher. It is part of the Series Ware collection and of course it is English made. This pattern is called “Poppies A”. The main decoration on the body of the jug is poppy flowers and stems. The series is described in Louise Irvine’s Royal Doulton Series Ware reference books, (Vol 4, Page 198). Note that the photos provided form part of the description. Please contact me if you would like more photos or further information on condition. Any shiny spots or white marks are from the camera shots, not blemishes on the item. Mustard colouring, brown trim and treacle glaze. MEASUREMENTS: 19cms high, 12cms in diameter across the top from the spout, not including the handle. The base is approx 10cms in diameter. CONDITION: No chips or cracks. Does have old age related glaze crazing, which is normally expected in ceramics of this age and adds to the character of the piece in my opinion. The brown is in good condition with just a little wear in one area on the rim. Has some glaze skips and some grit under the glaze in one area, part of the manufacturing process which would have been pretty rudimentary at the time this piece was produced. Overall in good condition in my opinion. MARKINGS: The bottom of the jug has a black Royal Doulton lion and crown back stamp. Also, the registration number, “D4012″. AGE: Ms Irvine states the pattern was produced from 1906 and withdrawn during WW1. Could be as old as 1916, but either way, this makes the item over 100 years old. GENERAL COMMENTS: Lovely collectable from a by-gone era. This piece of Royal Doulton is in good condition, especially considering its age.

Large Royal Doulton Character Jug The Fisherman Genuine Prototype Jug
This is a once in a blue moon opportunity to acquire a genuine large Royal Doulton prototype character jug of The Fisherman. This jug is genuine prototype jug. It was never put into production and was not continued with for reasons unknown. It features in the excellent book’A Century of Royal Doulton Character and Toby Jugs’ produced my Steve Mullins and David Fastenau and a copy of the entry is produced in the photos above. The Fisherman was prototyped in 1968 (so originates from the golden era of Doulton character jugs) and was produced by David Biggs. The Mullins book suggests that only one is known to exist, but this is a second example. What is more desirable about this jug is that it differs slightly from the one in the Mullins book, as one would expect when several prototypes were being produced. This jug has a more square jawline and lighter features, as well as blue/grey coat and hat. I have attached several photos of the base however for you to judge for yourself. Aside from that there is no damage, chips, cracks, blemishes or evidence of other restoration anywhere on the jug. It truly is a piece of Royal Doulton history and a work of art! For an example of what this jug would cost via a dealer, take a look at the link below…. I shall be very sad to see him go from my collection, and I very much hope whoever buys the jug gets as much pleasure from owning it as I did!
