It is hand decorated with brown sprigs on a tan ground and stands just 2 inches high. Due to its small size, I believe it to be part of a child&#8217;s tea set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><div>Many years ago, I imagine an eager child poured the pretend cream too aggressively, resulting in a broken handle. Amazingly the broken jug wasn&#8217;t discarded, and instead was resurrected nearly 100 years later, thanks to snapping on an Emergency Handle for Domestic Receptacles (EHFDR.) I have more of these nifty do-it-yourself replacement handles, patented in the early 1920s, in my collection and have long admired this unique, though not quite successful, invention: <a

c.1850.<\/a> I am excited to report that <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/?p=3937\">Emergency Handle for Domestic Receptacles, c.1922<\/a> was acquired by the V&amp;A and is now in their permanent ceramics collection. <\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\"
