Description
This little stoneware milk jug carries a single bright red cherry on a green stem and leaf, set against a soft cream glaze. The cherry sits on one side only, with the reverse left plain, so the fruit faces the table while the clean cream body keeps the look simple. It is a mini jug holding approximately 150ml, plenty of milk for a pot of tea or a round of coffees. It stands 8.2cm tall, is 9.2cm long and 6.4cm wide, and weighs just 0.14KG, so it is easy to lift and pour with one hand.
We like it on the breakfast table beside the teapot, on a tray carried through to the sitting room, or on the kitchen dresser between uses where the red cherry adds a cheerful spot of colour. Its small footprint suits a bistro table for two, a busy desk at work or a guest room tea tray, and it takes up little room in the cupboard. Beyond milk, it is a handy size for single cream over a pudding, a little honey for porridge, or a few short stems from the garden on a windowsill.
The jug is made from stoneware with a smooth glossy glaze, a rounded loop handle that gives a comfortable grip and a small pouring lip shaped into the rim. It is dishwasher safe on the top rack only; between washes, a quick rinse or a wipe with a damp cloth keeps the cream glaze looking fresh. Wrapped with a packet of loose leaf tea or a box of biscuits, it makes a cheerful small present, and it sits happily alongside plain white or cream tableware for a relaxed country kitchen look.
