This exquisite Swansea pouch jug, dating to circa 1820 is decorated with an intricate all-over pink transfer design featuring birds, flowers, and serene oriental river scenes. The pattern, known as ‘Oriental Basket,’ exemplifies the delicate artistry of Swansea pottery from this period.

This exceptional piece is believed to have been part of the prestigious Sir Leslie Joseph Collection, which was auctioned in 1992.
The jug remains in excellent condition with uniform crazing consistent with its age. Remarkably, there are no chips, cracks, or restorations to the body, and the jug is fully watertight—ready to display or use. There is one shallow nibble to the base of the jug, as photographed. 
A rare and beautiful collector's item!

Measures approx. 19.5cm high x 21cm from handle to spout
