Classification:
Three-Dimensional Artifacts
Notes:
The design is similar (or perhaps identical) to the Silenus jug first manufactured by Minton in 1831, but the present iteration lacks a maker's mark. Minton's design was copied by Mason, Spode, Stephen Green, Doulton & Watts, and Continental companies. See Hughes, Henrywood.
