Wedgwood Drabware Dutch Jug - A Wedgwood drabware earthenware jug of Dutch form, dating to circa 1820. This pitcher features a smooth, unglazed-like drab-colored body accented with gilded highlights.

The base is impressed with the factory mark WEDGWOOD. It retains two provenance labels: a circular paper label for the Robin Reilly Collection, and a smaller silver-toned label for the Rubin Collection.
