Enoch Wood Toby Jug


Nice jug, I would say about 1810, made by Enoch Wood. Nitice the very high definition of the face, the over painted eye brows, and the face worts. The waistcoate looks to be very finely spotted, and the give away for Enoch Wood is the marbled base. Very difficult to see here, but the finish should be slightly matt. Nice hair, you can almost see the waves. Pipe by the right hand side which is a nice touch, and the pot heholding looks good, probobly just grated clay, sometimes this can be given a bubble effect. Price is difficult, I asked in Portabello Road last week, and no toby jugs are selling, so I reakon the price of this one will be about £1000, shich is quite expensive in market.
