Jersey Pottery Hand Painted Pickle Jar

This is a nice example of an art pottery pickle jar by Jersey Pottery. The jar has a lower cylindrical portion that tapers in towards the base. It is decorated with a band of leaves with a central stylised onion. The lid is discoid with a broad discoid knop. There is a wide notch out of the side for insertion of a spoon. It is decorated around the edge with a band of dark green glaze. This is incised with the word ‘PICKLE’. The base is moulded with the words ‘JERSEY POTTERY C.I.’ It has a maximum height (including the lid) of approximately 8.5cm, with a diameter across the rim of about 9.0cm and across the base of about 6.4cm. It is in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks.
