Off-white stoneware jug, commemorating Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson (1758-1805). The neck is reeded, and the upper part of the jug and the top of the handle are glazed dark brown. The bottom of the jug is decorated with cane ribbed moulding. The surface of the body is roughened and has applied reliefs showing a drinking scene, Venus, Jupiter and Diana, and a warship. A uniformed figure of a naval officer holding a speaking trumpet, with a missing right arm, is intended to represent Nelson. There is a gun behind him and trophies above.
