Antique Rockingham Porcelain Jug, Model 8376, England, Circa 1830

A fine early 19th-century porcelain jug produced by the Rockingham Ceramic Factory, Swinton, England, around 1830. The jug features a four-lobed form with molded Rococo-style scrollwork, richly gilded and accented in yellow over a grey-glazed ground with visible craquelure. The scalloped rim is enameled with floral sprays on both sides. The loop handle is foliate and fully gilt.                                                                                                                                                                           The underside is marked with model number "8376" in puce enamel. This number corresponds to a jug preserved in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London (C.93-1951), confirming the attribution and design.                                                                                                                                   This is a documented and desirable example of Rockingham porcelain at its peak, notable for its decorative quality and historical provenance. Dimensions: height 19.2 cm, width 16 cm, depth 13 cm, weight 549 g. Condition: excellent. Gilding and enamel are intact. No damage or restoration.
