Vintage J&G Meakin Sunflower Milk Jug Yellow Floral Ceramic

 A cheerful J&G Meakin Sunflower milk jug with bright yellow floral decoration, a textured quilted base and the distinctive character of mid century English tableware.

The stylised sunflower design gives this little jug a wonderfully uplifting quality, with the vibrant yellow decoration standing out beautifully against the ceramic ground. The textured quilted base adds another layer of interest, giving the piece a tactile quality as well as its decorative appeal.

Made in England by J&G Meakin, this jug reflects the optimistic approach to British tableware that became popular during the mid twentieth century. Bold floral designs and lively colour brought personality to everyday dining, turning practical pieces into something much more decorative.

The Sunflower pattern, also known as Sol, has a particularly appealing period character. Its bright floral motif makes the jug easy to enjoy amongst other vintage ceramics, while its compact form works equally well on a breakfast table or displayed on open shelving.

A lovely piece of English tableware with cheerful colour, interesting texture and plenty of mid century character.
