Here on offer is a superb antique Victorian green Lovatt & Lovatt ‘Mycovera’ pint jug/tea pot, dating to 1898.

 

The company was originally founded by and named, Calvert in 1865, becoming Calvert & Lovatt in 1883. Then, Lovatt & Lovatt at the Langley Mill in Nottinghamshire in 1895. Well known for their slip decorated earthenware. Goods were marketed under various names such as Langley Ware and Lovique Ware. It was here that the production of MYCOVERA was introduced in 1898, which resulted in items such as this pretty, rustic and functional pot.

 

The jug has a traditional brown salt glaze body with a floral slip glaze stencil pattern with some inscised detail, around the belly of the jug. Inside the jug is glazed. The main body of the jug has a sort of pear shape with a bulbous body that tapers at the neck, with an applied spout. The lid has an arrow to aid the flow of water. The handle is a beautiful accented scroll shape and nicely proportioned to the jug. Apart from minor firing slubs the jug is in remarkable condition. This type of jug was most likely used for hot water.

 

  ‘1 PT’ has been impressed into the base along with the maker’s mark, the pattern name MYCOVERA, along with the registered design number.

 

The pot is offered in good antique condition, it measures about 20cm high by 15cm.

 

A fantastic example from the Arts and Crafts period.
