The striped decoration on this highly unusual Toby Jug can also be seen inside the jug, as the two colours of clay have been rolled together and press-moulded rather than painted onto the surface. Such large examples of 'solid agate' are exceptionally rare and in this instance the pattern of striped clay creates a striking costume for this remarkable jug.
