EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating Puzzle jug from the 13th century. Created by an unknown English artist, this ceramic masterpiece measures 35.5x15.8 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. The Puzzle jug was not just an ordinary drinking vessel; it was specifically designed for entertaining drinking games during medieval times. Its unique decoration features red vertical strips paired with applied scales, creating a visually striking pattern. The rim of the jug is adorned with face pads, adding a touch of whimsy to its design. One notable feature of this puzzle jug is its broken spout that originally began at the neck and was supported by two hands. This clever design element added an extra challenge to the game as players had to figure out how to drink from it without spilling any liquid. Crafted during the 13th -14th centuries, this particular puzzle jug belongs to Brill/Boarstall ware from Buckinghamshire, known for its exceptional pottery craftsmanship. With its intricate details and historical significance, this ceramic puzzle jug offers us a glimpse into ancient drinking traditions and serves as a testament to human creativity across different eras.
