About the Item

This is an antique ironstone pitcher, from England, featuring a transferware design. Material: It's made of ironstone, a durable type of pottery developed in the 19th century as a more robust and affordable alternative to porcelain. Design: The pitcher is decorated with a "Japanese Pattern" or "Pagoda Style" transferware design, depicting scenes with pagodas, bridges, figures, and floral motifs, notably a prominent pink rose. Origin: Ironstone ware, including this style of pitcher, was first produced in the United Kingdom in the early 19th century, particularly in Staffordshire, England. Collectability: Items like this are considered decorative and collectible pieces, often used for display. This image shows the backstamp of a piece of J&R Godwin Improved Ironstone China. Manufacturer: J&R Godwin was a pottery manufacturer, and this mark indicates a piece of their "Improved Ironstone China".
