This set of 3 Wileman Faience graduated jugs is decorated with scenes from Shakespeare's play "The Merrie Wives of Windsor"(Pattern 7611). The octagonal shaped jugs are known variously as "American", "Quaint", "Mayer" or "Mason". The height of the largest jug is 180mm. There is some crazing to the pieces and there is a small crack to the inside of the middle jug, but it is not visible on the outside. This pattern was introduced in 1909 and they carry the "Foley Faience" mark which was discontinued in 1910.
