Early 20th Century Staffordshire Pottery Toby Jug

Description: 1918; Royal Staffordshire Pottery - London Antique Toby Jug designed by Carruthers Gould and manufactured by Arthur J Wilkinson. It depicts Field Marshal Horatio Herbert Kitchener, 1st Earl Kitchener, a British Army officer who came to prominence for his imperial campaigns, his involvement in the Second Boer War, and his role in the early part of the First World War. "A Toby Jug, sometimes referred to as a Fillpot (or Philpot), is a pottery jug crafted in the form of a seated person or the head of a recognizable individual. Typically, the seated figure is portrayed as a heavy-set, jovial man, holding a mug of beer in one hand and a pipe of tobacco in the other, dressed in 18th-century attire: a long coat and a tricorn hat. The tricorn hat forms a pouring spout, often featuring a removable lid, and a handle is attached at the back. Jugs depicting only the head and shoulders of a figure are also known as Toby jugs, though they are more accurately termed 'character jugs' or 'face jugs' in historical context."
