On offer is a vintage mid century Sandland Staffordshire Martell Cognac character jug, modelled as a gentleman dressed in a black jacket and yellow waistcoat, holding a glass of cognac in one hand and a cigar in the other. The design features a clever time locked optical illusion, with the face transforming when viewed from different angles, making it an unusual and collectable advertising piece.

Sandland Staffordshire was a respected English pottery manufacturer, well known during the mid twentieth century for producing high quality character wares and advertising ceramics. Their figural jugs remain popular with collectors of both breweriana and vintage British pottery. This example is in good condition and measures approximately 6.5 inches tall.

A fine example of a vintage Martell Cognac character jug that combines novelty, advertising history and classic Staffordshire craftsmanship.
