It was founded in 1868 by Frederick Mitchell (1819-75) whose nephew, Frederick Thomas Mitchell (1864-1920) made this jug for Dr J.W.L. Glaisher, a fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge. In the 1870s the pottery became famous for pig-shaped flasks known as 'Sussex pigs', and for 'hop wares' which were decorated with moulded and applied wreaths of hops and glazed green and brown. Unlike many green glazes which were coloured with copper oxide, this was coloured with brass dust produced in the manufacture of pins. When F.T. Mitchell took over the pottery in 1896 on the death of his uncle's widow, he revived these wares and continued to make them in the twentieth century. When Glaisher bought this jug in 1899, Mitchell told him that the idea for the hop decoration came from the hops which twined round the door of the old Cadborough pottery at Rye, which his uncle had left in 1868. The decoration was particularly suitable for beer jugs, but was also used on other forms. A small puzzle jug decorated with a spray of oak leaves and acorns was purchased by Glaisher on another visit in 1912 (C.83C-1928).referenceterm-108070adlib-term-1080707e278258-23e3-3d5b-a4ff-ab5ecacb4bf319th Century, Late#referenceterm-15214adlib-term-15214744af2c4-a2f2-37ad-bbf4-2cd00e91ed9bVictorianreferenceterm-106619adlib-term-1066198751e736-08f0-3938-b3b5-d62351ff4b40literalEnglandEnglandcountryliteralSussexSussexregionRyereferenceterm-107733adlib-term-10773300160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4lead-glazereferenceterm-42861adlib-term-428615b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956cearthenwareHeightcm22.5referencemedia-43455adlib-media-4345541c4817a-4538-392e-8964-2c2c2914daa4jpegaa/aa3/C_38B_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels57016162508798811imagejpegaa/aa3/mid_C_38B_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels649widthpixels50016162508798811imagejpegaa/aa3/C_38B_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels57016162508798811imagejpegaa/aa3/preview_C_38B_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels325widthpixels25016162508798811image0media
