A large and impressive Doulton Lambeth Faience floral painted jug or pitcher by a listed but unidentified artist and dating from around 1880. The tall and elegantly shaped jug stands on bell shaped pedestal foot with a slender bulbous shaped body with a narrow long neck and large shaped and raised pouring spout with a looped and shaped handle extending from the top and resting on the upper body of the jug. The jug is hand painted with large flowering blooms on leafy stems painted in tones of yellow, brown, black and green against a pale light blue and red ground with reddy brown glazes applied to the foot rim, handle and partitioning rings between the various sections of the jug. The jug has both impressed and printed Doulton Lambeth Faience marks to the base and is numbered 2093 and 102 and has various artist marks, some of which are recorded as unidentified. A stunning and finely painted example nonetheless. Provenance: From the collection of the late Dr Ronald Austin of Swansea and acquired by a Belgium based collector from the UK Art Market. Condition: The jug is in good condition and displays well. Size: Height 28cm, Diameter 9.5cm.

Being able to share one’s passion is the dream! As a young boy Frank McKenzie would spend his time visiting local’Jumble Sales’ and foraging landfill on old railway lines for abandoned treasures. Since then and as an entrepreneur and accountant he has had a diverse and interesting career. With the emergence of the Internet this has since evolved into a thriving business. This has since expanded to incorporate branded handbags and jewellery. In 2021 the watch business was acquired by German online watch platform Chrono24 and Frank continued to run Xupes but with handbags and jewellery. He founded McKenzie Art & Design to handle the sale of his vast collection. Today the business is a LAPADA accredited member and Frank enjoys sharing his life-long passion with dealers and interior designers worldwide and has also developed relationships with private collectors across the globe.
