Victorian Hand Painted Majolica Gurgle Fish Ceramic Pitcher

Description

This late 19th-century 1180 English Majolica gurgling trout ceramic jug is a stunning example of late Victorian English craftsmanship. The vibrant glaze highlights the intricate detailing of the troutâ€™s scales and fins, bringing the aquatic theme to life. Its whimsical design serves as a functional jug but also emits a charming "gurgle" sound when poured. It embodies artistry and playfulness, making it a centerpiece in any display or table setting.

Standing 11" inches tall, this figural fish pitcher is also featured on page 133 of "Warman's Majolica" by Mark F. Moran.
