Product Information
Full details
The Wade Fish Jug is a quintessential piece of British heritage design, perfect for homeowners who appreciate classic craftsmanship and those looking to add a functional statement piece to their dining table. While it excels as a conversation-starting carafe or decorative vase, users should note that the iconic 'glugging' sound only occurs when the jug is at least three-quarters full, which may require careful pouring during social gatherings.

FAQs
Is this jug dishwasher safe?
It is recommended to hand-wash this heritage ceramic piece to maintain the integrity of the glaze and prevent chipping.
Can I use this for hot beverages?
While it is made of ceramic, it is primarily designed for cold beverages like water or wine. Rapid temperature changes may affect the material.
What is the total capacity?
The jug has a 1.2-liter capacity, which is ideal for serving multiple guests.
Does it come in other colors?
This specific model is the Grey edition. Please check the brand range for other color variations.
Is the finish matte or glossy?
The jug features a classic, smooth glaze that is typical of traditional Wade ceramic products.
Troubleshooting
The jug is not making the glugging sound.
Ensure the jug is filled to at least 75% capacity. The sound is dependent on the displacement of air created by the water level.
Liquid drips while pouring.
Ensure you are tipping the jug with a steady, confident motion to allow the fish-mouth spout to direct the flow cleanly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a handcrafted ceramic item, treat it with the same care as fine stoneware. To keep the finish pristine, hand-wash the jug with mild soap and warm water; avoid harsh abrasives that could scratch the grey glaze. Ensure the jug is completely dry before storing it in a cabinet to prevent moisture buildup inside the base. When pouring, always hold the jug firmly by the tail-handle to maintain control, especially when full, to avoid accidental slips.
