Large 18th Century Pewter Pot Bellied Flagon
This most special, antique pewter flagon, has such a wonderfully aged patina and considered design. Dating to the early part of the 18th century it is pot bellied in shape, with concentric circles to its lip, body and foot, with a handsome angular shaped handle, and is reassuringly weighty! We believe it to be of Scottish origin and displays three makers touch-marks to its rim, an A, a rose and a J with intersecting arrow.
It would make a beautiful display piece in any country or farmhouse setting, or a super addition to add to an existing pewter collection.
Key Points:
• A large antique pewter flagon jug
• Pot bellied with concentric banding
• Makers touch marks to rim
• Circa early 18th century
• In beautifully aged antique condition (makers marks unknown)
Year of manufacture:
c. early 18th century

Likely Scottish
Approximate Measurements:
H: 22cm (9")

W: 12cm (5") base diameter
Condition:

Displaying a gorgeous dark patina, along with historic characterful marks, small crumples and indents to its rim from use, (meaning this is slightly irregular in shape). It has a small spilt to its upper neck, visible from the interior but not from its exterior. Please see photograph for clarity. Solid weighty base and firmly resolute handle.

Buyers Guide:
It is very important to note, that all the pieces Roof + Roof sell are genuine pieces of age, each having a rich and varied past and are never sold as in new condition. With this in mind, minor blemishes, surface scratches, manufacturing flaws and a general sense of their age and history are naturally to be expected. We always try, to the best of our ability to honestly and clearly communicate an items condition, both in our description and photography, highlighting anything over and above what we perceive as ‘general age related wear and tear'. We kindly ask you look closely at all our photos, using the zoom facility, as these naturally form part of the item's description.
Please be aware that your monitor, tablet, or mobile device may emulate colours/tones differently 'on screen' to that of the actual physical item, all of which are photographed and shown to the best of our abilities. Any item/prop shown in our photography is used for styling purposes only. Prior to purchasing, if you would like further clarification on any item, then we are always happy to help in any way possible.
