Know before you buy
This jug has a generous 74 oz capacity, making it well-suited for serving large batches of iced tea, lemonade, or water during gatherings.
Yes, the jug features an integrated handle designed for a secure grip. Given the 74 oz capacity, the handle is proportioned to help you pour steadily even when the vessel is filled to its limit.
No, this piece does not include a lid. It is designed as an open-top pitcher, which is ideal for easy pouring and showcasing the scrolling blossom pattern.
To maintain the integrity of the cobalt blue glaze and traditional English craftsmanship, we recommend hand washing with mild detergent. Avoid harsh abrasives to ensure the indigo-inspired pattern remains vibrant over time.
While it is crafted from durable ceramic, it is primarily designed as a serving pitcher for cold beverages. We recommend avoiding extreme temperature shocks, such as pouring boiling water directly into a cold vessel.
