Lot 451: Three Wade Royal Victoria pottery spirit barrels
A trio of vintage glazed earthenware spirit barrels manufactured by Wade Pottery under the Royal Victoria brand. Each decanter is fashioned in the form of a miniature barrel, featuring horizontal coloured bands with gilt lining: blue for Gin, maroon for Port, and green for Sherry. The front of each barrel is decorated with a transfer-printed label within decorative foliate scrollwork borders. Each vessel is fitted with a front-mounted spigot and a top opening for a stopper. The base of the barrels bears the printed factory mark Royal Victoria Wade England Pottery, alongside a hand-painted blue digit 2 and an incised letter C.
