I am pleased to offer an excellent and mint Botanic Garden 2 pint Staffordshire pitcher or jug featuring a Dog Rose or Rosa Canina flower. The large bumble bee, found on most Dog Rose decorated items, is also present.

The pitcher is mint and new with the UPC code still attached!


The Dog Rose motif, famous for its huge bee, was an original 1972 flower on salad plates and still remains in production today. It is based on an image found in a 1835 botany book with illustrations by William Clarke,Moral of Flowers, and written by Mrs. Hey.
