Vintage Johnson Bros Pareek Lombardy Milk Jug 1930s 1940s

A yellow ground, hand coloured flowers and a scalloped rim edged in black.

This Johnson Brothers milk jug pairs the Lombardy floral pattern with the distinctive Pareek range. Pink, blue and cream details sit against a warm yellow background, with gold decoration on the handle completing the design.

Made in England around the 1930s to 1940s, the jug combines a shaped tableware form with detailed surface decoration. Its approximately three quarter pint capacity gives it a useful size beyond a small creamer.

Pair it with plain contemporary cups at breakfast, or use it for a loose bunch of seasonal flowers. The yellow glaze brings warmth to a kitchen shelf, particularly alongside green pottery, dark wood or simple white tableware.

A colourful piece of English ceramics and a thoughtful vintage gift for someone who enjoys floral design.
