Table of Contents

The Toby jug is often seen as a uniquely British form of ceramics. Its history dates back at least as far as the 1770s, and it is possible to trace its ancestors even further to the creation of anthropomorphic jugs and bottles by the medieval potter.

This new colour edition surveys the development of the Toby and related character jugs from their early beginnings to the present day. It introduces the reader to his fascinating area of ceramics and provides useful hints and advise for all those thinking of collecting Toby jugs.
