The International Exhibition: mediaeval claret-jug by Messrs. Hardman and Co... 1862. Creator: Unknown
The International Exhibition: mediaeval claret-jug by Messrs. Hardman and Co. of King-William-street, Strand, 1862. We this week engrave...a claret-jug of very rich appearance, of silver partly gilt and entirely of hammered work and engraving, no part being machine-stamped. The ornament of plants runs up to a flower, the centre of which bears a carbuncle, the rich glow of the gem corresponding very well with the giltwork, and which will also have a very good effect when the jug be on the table contrasted with other vessels of glass, or frosted or polished silver. On the cover is also a cluster of carbuncles. Our readers will perceive that the shape is purely mediaeval; and, although our Engraving cannot give any adequate idea of the richness of colour produced by the jewels and giltwork, yet it will sufficiently portray the beautiful form of the jug. The design of this, as well as of all other articles exhibited by Messrs. Hardman, is by Mr. J. H. Powell, who is evidently a master of that peculiar class of design even in its minutest details. His designs are worked out under his immediate superintendence'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning mediaeval-inspired claret jug, created by the renowned firm of Hardman and Co. in 1862, showcases the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic vision of its makers. The jug, which is partly gilt and entirely made of hammered work and engraving, boasts an intricate design of plants that culminates in a central flower bearing a carbuncle gem. The rich glow of the gem complements the giltwork, creating a striking contrast against other vessels when displayed on the table. The jug's shape is reminiscent of medieval design, with a cover adorned with a cluster of carbuncles. Although the engraving cannot fully capture the richness of color produced by the jewels and giltwork, it provides a clear representation of the beautiful form of the jug. The design of this and all other articles exhibited by Hardman and Co. was overseen by the talented designer, J. H. Powell. His mastery of the unique class of design is evident in the minutest details, making each piece a work of art in its own right.
