Ridgway, Son \u0026amp; Co. of Hanley, Staffordshire, impressed on the base \"Published by W. Ridgway, Son \u0026amp; Co. Hanley September 1 1840.\" The design celebrates the Eglinton Tournament of August 1839, when the Earl of Eglinton staged a full medieval joust at his castle in Ayrshire before some 100,000 spectators, famously washed out by a downpour. Armored knights charge on caparisoned horses beneath Gothic arches above a band of fruiting grapevines, with a rustic branch handle. The same jug is held in the collections of the V\u0026amp;A in London and the Yale Center for British Art.
