DESCRIPTION
Beswick Large Toby Jug Ebenezer Scrooge A delightful depiction of the old skinflint in his nightcap, nicely painted. This large jug is in a excellent condition. The "Beswick Ware" mark was used in 1936.
When the Beswick family built a pot bank in Tunstall in 1840, it was to guarantee a market for the output of their coal mines; they leased out the pot bank with coal purchase being part of the contract. In the 1890's James Wright Beswick decided to take a direct hand in the ceramics business, later buying the Gold Street Works in Longton, Staffordshire, the firm's long term home. The firm's history is characterised by enterprise. Early on they launched themselves enthusiastically at the popular market producing items in the Victorian taste: highly decorated tableware, jugs, plant-pots, spittoons and figures. They also made reproduction 'antique' Staffordshire figures. With new kilns and modern methods, they could compete keenly on price and as a result, by 1930 they employed 400 people.
