C1893 Chicago Exhibition Doulton Lambeth World’s Columbian Exposition Jug
Measuring 19cm high this Doulton Lambeth Commemorative jug “Worlds Colombian exposition 1893″. Designed by John Broad. Artist initials to base BN for Bessie Newbery. The jug features moulded relief portrait busts of George Washington and Christopher Columbus, on either side of the central cartouche which has the American Eagle and American flags. The jug is in good condition with a small very good professional restoration to the spout (old hairline) and possibly some good professional restoration to the rim but the rim restoration is only visible under UV light as I have shown in photos. The past two photos show the same area of inner rim, under UV light and normal light, the UV does not show anything up on the outside of the jug.
