The earthenware Harvest Pitcher is a slip scraffito decorated example, under the pouring lip is the main central image of two birds and an abundance of leaves and vines on the upper body. At the back of the jug under the handle is a motto in script which reads; “Beware the Potter Said to the lump of Clay, I’ll be burnt first Saucily responded the Mud”
This piece is the work of George Fishley and produced at the beginning of the 19th century. The depiction of birds from the Fremington and other potteries was symbolic of peace following the defeat of the French at Waterloo.
