It is marked on the underside with the incised number 463.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s no doubt this is a lovey little jug, but it would be nothing without its ornate replacement handle, added after the original broke off. Typically I find small jugs such as this with simple metal tinker-make handles, so I was surprised to see such a fancy replacement. I appreciate the ingenuity of the repairer for attaching the top part of the new handle over the remains of the broken original and adding a band around the base, rather than drilling though the jug. Even though the original handle was much smaller than the replacement (see last photo), I much prefer the juxtaposition of the two material mashed up together on my unique jug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8919-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16665\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8919-1.jpeg 400w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8919-1-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8919-1-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8922.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16666\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8922.jpeg 400w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8922-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8922-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8924-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16667\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8924-1.jpeg 400w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8924-1-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8924-1-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8926.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16668\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8926.jpeg 400w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8926-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8926-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8927.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16669\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8927.jpeg 400w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8927-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8927-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8929.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16670\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8929.jpeg 400w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8929-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8929-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8931.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16671\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8931.jpeg 400w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8931-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8931-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s an example of the jug with its original handle intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/s-l1600-11.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16676\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/s-l1600-11.jpeg 400w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/s-l1600-11-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/s-l1600-11-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebay.com\/\">eBay<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This unglazed Parian porcelain cream jug measures 3.5 inches high and is decorated with a molded relief design of water nymphs.\u00a0Although I believe it was made in the mid-1800s, it has a later Art Nouveau feel to it.
