Malt Whisky Jug Appraisal

Glenfiddich Pure Malt Scotch Whisky Water Jug/Pitcher

This item is a ceramic water jug or pitcher, likely used for serving water with Scotch whisky. It is predominantly white with gold rim accents and brown printed graphics. The jug has a classic, slightly flared design, wider at the base and tapering gently towards the top. It features a prominent pouring spout at one side, integrated seamlessly into the rim. Two thin gold lines encircle the top rim, one directly on the edge and another just below a raised band, enhancing its visual appeal. The primary decoration on the visible side features the 'Glenfiddich Pure Malt Scotch Whisky' logo, including a detailed stag's head inside a circular frame, characteristic of the brand's branding. Below the main text, there is ornate scrollwork, and at the bottom, the text 'WM GRANT & SONS LTD DISTILLERS DUFFTOWN SCOTLAND' is visible, confirming the manufacturer and origin. The printing is clear and appears to be in good condition without significant fading or scratching. The overall condition seems very good, with no obvious chips, cracks, or repairs visible from the provided image. The ceramic body has a smooth, glazed finish, contributing to its refined appearance. This piece likely dates from the mid-to-late 20th century or early 21st century, consistent with promotional items for well-established whisky brands. Its craftsmanship suggests it's a quality promotional item, designed to be both functional and a collectible display piece.
