Production increased greatly after the end of the Thirty Years War in 1648, and Westerwald stoneware was exported on a large scale to other parts of Europe, including Britain.The medallion on this jug encloses the cipher GR for George I (ruled 1714-27), or George II (ruled 1727-60). A jug with a similar medallion and cipher in the Victoria and Albert Museum, is thought to be more likely to be from the reign of George II, about 1740 (CIRC 88-1919). The jug illustrates the typical colouring of much Westerwald stoneware: a pale grey body with incised and applied decorative motifs coloured in blue derived from cobalt, and manganese-purple before firing and salt-glazing. reference term-113787 adlib-term-113787 b3af5e0f-0c07-3b4c-a0e1-92620b827c8e George I reference term-107736 adlib-term-107736 e93a8dd1-d76d-320b-be9b-afa352e322a1 George II reference term-15267 adlib-term-15267 0efbda09-364a-372f-b331-c6ca003d61d0 literal Germany Germany country Westerwald grey reference term-42825 adlib-term-42825 858e5d17-b554-33d6-936f-25b16f72f39d stoneware Height cm 31 Width cm 24.2 reference media-39003 adlib-media-39003 39111791-53a8-3d28-9b68-33d1334729d4 jpeg aa/aa11/C_2047_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582752126 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/mid_C_2047_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742582752126 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/C_2047_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582752126 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/preview_C_2047_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742582752126 1 image 0 media image reference media-39004 adlib-media-39004 c7d7b967-8ecd-3725-b06a-6fe27784ec10 jpeg aa/aa11/C_2047_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582811746 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/mid_C_2047_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742582811746 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/C_2047_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582811746 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/preview_C_2047_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742582811746 1 image 1 media image reference media-39005 adlib-media-39005 aba605e7-eb56-362c-a274-5da3ba35b2c0 jpeg aa/aa11/C_2047_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582804223 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/mid_C_2047_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742582804223 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/C_2047_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582804223 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/preview_C_2047_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742582804223 1 image 2 media image reference term-89400 adlib-term-89400 194f8c99-93e1-30de-9465-9209222dafaa jug history note Christie's, 12 February, 1909, part of lot 101, the property of a lady; sold for £10.10s.0d. to Dr J.W.L.
