A red earthenware or other dark clay was used for the body which, after biscuit firing, was dipped in or painted with pink-gold lustre. This was often combined with other decorating techniques; here a wide band of white slip around the body produces a pink lustre ground, which has been decorated with bright enamels and sgraffito. This type of decoration on a similarly shaped jug, inscribed 1813, has been linked to a South Wales pottery (Gibson p.143).English lustreware was commercially produced from c.1805 and popular throughout the first half of the 19th Century. Staffordshire potters were the first and largest producers, though similar wares were also made in other regions. Minute amounts of gold were used to produce copper, gold, pink or purple lustre, depending on the type of clay, lustre formula, number of layers and firing temperature; platinum was used to mimic silver. Most lustreware was made for everyday use, and factory markings are rare.referenceterm-120816adlib-term-120816b8c35cb6-f02f-34c9-9dda-b3120e12c74919th Century, second quarter#referenceterm-121303adlib-term-121303ec91b069-9e11-397d-92ad-6ab224992074red earthenwareWidthcm19referencemedia-34812adlib-media-348126aed30a9-c50e-3659-b7c9-491534cba064jpegaa/aa2/C_1181_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels550widthpixels76016162590043721imagejpegaa/aa2/mid_C_1181_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels362widthpixels50016162590043721imagejpegaa/aa2/C_1181_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels550widthpixels76016162590043721imagejpegaa/aa2/preview_C_1181_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels181widthpixels25016162590043721image0media
