Wade Ceramics Unveils the Iconic Gurgling Jug and Pumpkin Collection

Wade Ceramics, a distinguished British brand with over 200 years of ceramic excellence, is excited to announce the reintroduction of the iconic Gurgling Jug, alongside the vibrant new Pumpkin Collection. These latest releases highlight Wade’s dedication to exceptional design and craftsmanship, continuing its tradition of creating timeless, charming pieces for homes around the globe. 

The Iconic Gurgling Jug: A Handcrafted British Classic 

At the heart of this launch is the Gurgling Jug, a storied piece of British pottery that has captivated imaginations for over 150 years. Originally crafted in Staffordshire, this distinctive jug gained fame when a pair was presented to Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip in 1958. Wade Ceramics is proud to reintroduce this historic design, now handcrafted in Stoke-on-Trent, the heart of the pottery industry. 

Available in six stunning colours—Sage Green, French Grey, Cobalt Blue, Forest Green, White, and Agave—the Gurgling Jug features an elegant fish shape and is renowned for the unique gurgling sound it makes when pouring. This versatile jug serves multiple functions: it can be used as a water jug, wine decanter, vase, or as a striking decorative piece. Each jug is expertly handcrafted using high-quality English earthenware and traditional slip-casting techniques. The process involves forming the jug in a plaster mould, followed by meticulous drying, firing, hand-glazing, and final firing, ensuring the highest standards of craftsmanship and quality. 

Introducing the Pumpkin Collection 

Complementing the Gurgling Jug, Wade Ceramics introduces the Pumpkin Collection, designed to infuse your home with autumnal charm. This collection features vibrant casserole dishes and a whimsical set of mugs, perfect for seasonal dining and décor. 

The Wade Pumpkin Casserole Dishes are crafted from durable stoneware, ideal for preparing and serving a variety of autumnal dishes. Oven-safe up to 250°C, these dishes are as functional as they are decorative, making them a standout addition to your seasonal table. 

The Set of 2 Pumpkin Mugs offers a playful twist on everyday mugs. Made from strong stoneware and finished in a gloss glaze, these mugs are microwave and dishwasher safe, combining practicality with festive cheer. 

Craftsmanship and Tradition 

Wade Ceramics continues to uphold the craftsmanship and heritage that have defined its legacy. While the Pumpkin Collection embraces contemporary design, the Gurgling Jug stands as a testament to Wade’s commitment to traditional pottery techniques. Each product reflects Wade’s dedication to quality and timeless design. 

A Timeless Addition to Any Home 

Whether you’re enhancing your dining experience with a classic design piece or adding a seasonal touch to your home, Wade Ceramics offers products that blend elegance, functionality, and rich history. The Gurgling Jug and Pumpkin Collection exemplify Wade’s enduring legacy, promising to bring charm and distinction to any setting.
