| Royal Doulton Isaac Walton Ware Jug D2312 U.S. Patent c1906 |
Based on Izaak Walton's 'The Compleat Angler' first published in 1653, the series depicts combinations of fishermen in 17th century dress with various quotations and willow tree borders. Here is an early art nouveau shaped jug, similar to the Tudor shape, showing various characters from the series. Around the base is the quote "And when the timrous trout I wait to take, And he devours my bait". For more details see Premier Antiques
