Art deco style jug typical of the period made in 1935 to commemorate the Royal Silver Jubilee of 25 years since the coronation of King George V and Queen Mary. A bit more unusual and more display worthy than the many commemorative cups and plates which were produced seemingly in their billions.
The British Empire was still something to be proud of at this time. On the back is the Royal coat of arms surrounded by the main countries in the empire. On the front you can see a sailing ship and an aeroplane representing Britain's influence reaching across the seas in the past, and into the future.
