An English porcelain yellow-ground jug circa 1795

possibly Caughley or Worcester, reserved with an oval panel painted in sepia monochrome with a view of Wrensnest Farm, Linley, Shropshire.

Some very minor and occasional rubbing to the gilding along the edges. There is an approximate 1-inch firing crack the body along the mold line below the central panel, which has been painted over with gilt garland to obscure. Otherwise in generally good condition.
