Entirely hand-decorated with geometric designs and finished in pure gold, it is unsigned, but only numbered under the base with incised numbers.

It was developed around 1845 by the important English manufacturer Mintons in Staffordshire and took its name from Paros, the Greek island renowned for its fine-textured white Parian marble, used since ancient times for sculpture. We believe the jug is English and dates to the late 19th century. See less
