Alfred Meakin China 16 oz Jug Pitcher Pattern Brown Tintern UK Vintage c.1950-60

Description: Alfred Meakin China 16 fl oz Jug Pitcher Pattern Brown Tintern UK Vintage c.1950-60 About the Jug/Pitcher For sale is a vintage 16 fl oz, ironstone china, brown & white, Alfred Meakin jug/pitcher in the "Tintern" pattern. I believe the backstamp shows this jug to have been created c.1950-60. Other listings state an earlier manufacturing date but my investigations into the backstamp link it to this later date. On the underside of the jug it says: "Tintern, Alfred Meakin, England. A hand engraved pattern applied under the glaze. Permanent and acid resisting color." Note: In ceramics, engraving is the general term for a variety of processes by which cuts or impressions are made into a small sheet of copper known as a copper plate. From these plates impressions - transfer prints can be produced to decorate pottery - such as I am offering for sale here. "Tintern” by Alfred Meakin is a lesser known pattern which features a scene of the village of Tintern, Monmouthshire Wales. In the foreground, a shepherd tends his flock on the bank of the River Wye. In the background is a historic landmark, the Tintern Abbey ruins. The Abbey was founded in 1131 and was surrendered to King Henry VIII in 1536. This jug/pitcher is in excellent, like new, condition, with no chips, cracks or crazing or discoloration.
