FAQs
What is the exact capacity of the jug?

Can I put hot liquids in this jug?
While made of fine china, it is best suited for cold or lukewarm liquids. Avoid pouring boiling liquids directly into it, as extreme temperature changes can damage the material.

Hand washing is recommended to maintain the quality of the fine china and the vibrancy of the William Morris pattern. Dishwasher use may cause wear over time.

Yes, the jug is designed to be versatile and can be used effectively as a decorative vase for small flower arrangements.

Specific dimensions are not provided in the product information, but it is described as having a practical, versatile capacity suitable for individual or small group servings.
Is the brown color consistent across all units?

How should I store the jug when not in use?
Store in a safe place where it won't be knocked over. If stacking, ensure it is done carefully to avoid chipping the rim or handle.
Troubleshooting
Jug has a slight chip or crack.
Inspect the jug carefully. Minor chips may be purely aesthetic, but significant cracks could compromise its integrity for holding liquids. Consider using it only as a decorative item if the damage is substantial.
Pattern appears faded.
Ensure you are not using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaning methods. Hand washing with mild soap is best to preserve the pattern's vibrancy.
Pouring is not smooth or drips.
Ensure the jug is held at an appropriate angle. Check the rim for any small imperfections that might be causing drips. Sometimes, a slight adjustment in pouring technique can resolve this.
