The earliest English silver cream jugs date from the late 17th Century, although examples of this age are very rare. From the octagonal ‘Sparrow Beak’ form of the Queen Anne period, to the Neoclassical ‘Helmet’ style of the 1780’s, to ornately decorated Victorian examples, to Arts & Crafts, Art Deco and Modernist designs, cream jugs have been popular items since they were first introduced, and good condition and novelty examples are highly sought after.
