Myott Blue Willow Pattern Creamer / Milk Jug
This is a classic ceramic creamer or milk jug manufactured by Myott (Staffordshire, England), featuring the iconic Blue Willow transferware pattern. The vessel is constructed from white fine earthenware or ironstone, typical of mid-20th-century British pottery. Its profile includes an angled, geometric handle with a decorative patterned thumb rest and a wide, gracefully curved pouring lip. The exterior is adorned with the traditional cobalt blue 'Willow' narrative scene, depicting a weeping willow tree, pagodas, a bridge with figures, a boat, and the symbolic pair of doves in flight. A geometric 'fretwork' border runs along the inner rim and handle. Based on the stylistic cues and handle shape, this piece likely dates from the 1930s to the 1950s. The glaze appears bright with high luster, though there is a visible small chip or debris adhered to the base area. Subtle crazing of the glaze may be present upon closer inspection, which is common for Myott pieces of this era. The craftsmanship represents high-quality mass-produced English transferware, known for its durability and crisp blue-on-white contrast.
