The designs usually have local or topical relevance and often allude to seafaring. Mottled-pink lustre is also associated with Sunderland. Sometimes called ‘splashed lustre’, the effect is produced by spraying fine drops of oil onto still-wet lustre, which leaves the surface mottled when the oil burns away during firing. The texts on this jug are both traditional English verses and their reproduction in contemporary anthologies and magazines attests to their popularity around 1820-40. The verse ‘We sailors are born for all weathers’ comes from a sailors’ song ‘The Tar for all Weathers’ about sailors battling a gale near Gibraltar, printed in ‘Hodgson's national songster’, 1832. The writer Washington Irving records seeing a slightly varied version of the rhyme ‘This world…’, on an inn window, in ‘Tales of a Traveller’, 1824; it also appeared in the monthly journal ‘The Nic-Nac’ the same year. reference term-106498 adlib-term-106498 272179a1-524b-3f36-aab7-bf342ce484d6 19th Century, Early reference term-108844 adlib-term-108844 cae6ef1c-282e-39e4-b56c-672a8117d6fd literal England England country Sunderland reference term-107733 adlib-term-107733 00160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4 lead-glaze reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Height cm 18.6 Width cm 23 reference media-34331 adlib-media-34331 97272756-e32b-31b9-ad1a-7d6771904e8f jpeg aa/aa8/C_1089_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1616267781880 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_1089_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1616267781880 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_1089_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1616267781880 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_1089_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1616267781880 1 image 0 media image reference media-34332 adlib-media-34332 d133cdbf-8214-3f85-9ee1-5a9fcf02db10 jpeg aa/aa8/C_1089_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1616279064173 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_1089_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1616279064173 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_1089_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1616279064173 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_1089_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1616279064173 1 image 1 media image reference media-34333 adlib-media-34333 0c4cd3c2-7eda-35ab-a885-431ce41eccbb jpeg aa/aa8/C_1089_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1616240534088 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_1089_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1616240534088 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_1089_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1616240534088 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_1089_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1616240534088 1 image 2 media image reference media-34334 adlib-media-34334 a967bd20-c763-3eb7-b6d8-de87efa6ddd4 jpeg aa/aa8/C_1089_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1616271383874 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_1089_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1616271383874 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_1089_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1616271383874 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_1089_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1616271383874 1 image 3 media image reference term-89400 adlib-term-89400 194f8c99-93e1-30de-9465-9209222dafaa jug object name reference term-134016 adlib-term-134016 f945b0b5-23ea-3561-809b-a24844a0006e commemorative jug object name reference term-134028 adlib-term-134028 f428d69f-9636-33a1-a300-43ebc9a24eef Sunderland ware object name reference term-110727 adlib-term-110727 ebeafa07-8aa4-35ee-93de-94d5a21e0274 lustreware category history note Billson collection until 1908.
