[QUOTE="ascot, post: 419286, member: 96"]So I have a beautiful antique transfer ware jug that I believe was made by J Thomson & Sons of Annfield Pottery, Glasgow, Scotland. The pattern is called Shanghai. I haven't been able to find another piece in this pattern by this maker. The jug is just under 8" tall. I have 3 questions: 1) What can you tell me about the Chinese figures? Are they playing instruments? 2) Should I leave it as is or give it a peroxide soak? (I sort of like it as is, but since I'll probably sell it, maybe I should clean it up?) 3) Is Scottish transferware more valuable than English? Thanks!
