"Pompadour"
Booths "Pompadour" print is a direct copy of Job Ridgway & Sons "Japan Opaque China" Pattern 767. This popular pattern appeared around 1907 and continued through the life of the company often accompanied by the pattern number 8083. The jug shape shown here has been mistaken for Mason's but the handle is different.
The jug is 7.5 inches tall and 7 inches from lip to handle. Earthenware.
