Royal Winton Jazz

Royal Winton 'Jazz' Art Deco Cream Jug c1934

'Jazz' is a vibrant combination of arcs, squares, circles, triangles and other shapes in tan, yellow, purple, black and green. A mixture of printing, sponging and hand painting, it was given the name by collectors because of its abstract musical features. Introduced by Grimwades in the early 1930s and reputably sold as a special offer in a magazine, pieces are seldom marked by the factory though occasionally items are impressed 'Winton'.
