 | Silver Claret Jug
Birmingham
Martyn Pugh
Height: 37.5cm
Capacity: 75cl
POA
The crystal body displays the wine whilst leaving breathing space and has a particularly complex silver mount. The hinged concave lid form, which remains closed when pouring, and the 'stirrup' handle require considerable time and technical expertise to create. The jug has a satisfying weight, balance and feel. A lid-less version is also available as a matching water jug.
