The body appears mid-brown under the yellowish lead-glaze. The jug has a cylindrical neck, and a slightly bulbous body which contracts into a narrow solid foot with a projecting edge. The strap handle has a slight longitudinal ridge. The neck is slip-trailed in brown with white spots over it with a narrow horizontal band below which is the name THOMAS TOFT. Below there is a broad cream slip band impressed with a row of Xs, and there is a similar band below the main field. This is decored wth five almond-shaped motifs outlined with cream slip and impressed Xs, and having a cream slip rosette in the centre of the pale red clay ground. In each space between them there is a vertical motif comprising a lozenge flanked by almond-shaped motifs impressed over cream slip. The ground is dark brown.EC.1-19371accession numberEC.1-193776861priref76861193719371937Glaisher additions numberGl.
