Henrywood – Relief-Moulded Jugs

Moulded Teapots

Some jug designs were adapted for use on teapots or other related wares. Although they are not a focus for this site, teapots will be added here as I come across them. Where they are adapted from jug designs, full details will be filed on the appropriate manufacturer's page.
