Patrizia Stoneware Jug 1500ml - Blue

This is a tall stoneware jug that holds 1500ml, a generous size for pouring water, juice or milk around a family table rather than a small jug for a single pot of tea. It stands 22.5cm tall and 13.5cm across, with straight sides that widen gently towards the base, a pinched pouring lip and a broad looped handle. The blue diamond pattern sits close together over the lower part of the body and thins out as it climbs, leaving the top of the jug plain, while a fine line traces the rim.

At 1500ml it suits a long lunch for the whole household, a Sunday roast with iced water in the middle, or a summer evening in the garden with homemade lemonade. It is just as useful at breakfast, holding milk for cereal and coffee, and because it can go in the microwave you can warm milk in it for hot chocolate without reaching for a pan. Between meals it makes a pleasing vase for a loose bunch of garden flowers or tall stems, and its height means it holds its own on a dresser or a deep windowsill.

Stoneware is a dense, hard-wearing clay fired at high temperature, and this jug has a reassuring heft at 1.13KG. Its body is 100% stoneware, and the pattern is a decal print finished with hand-painted details. Care is simple: it goes in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so it can move from warming to serving to washing up without fuss. We like to stand it beside plain plates and linen napkins for a relaxed table, or to give it a spot on an open shelf at eye level, where the blue diamonds catch the light and it stays within easy reach for the next meal.
