Frechen stoneware bellarmine jug (baardman - Bartmann). Globular body, narrow neck and applied moulded bearded face mask with good expression below a rosette / medallion. The medallion is crisply stamped and framed within a raised border. The bearded face with deep-set eyes, prominent nose and flowing beard is positioned below the rim on the neck. The handle rises from the shoulder to the rim in a sturdy arc.

Height: ± 23 cm

Condition: Very fine condition, small professional restauration to the top of the neck and a small firing imperfection (left of the rosette) and minor abrasions, consistent with age.

The bellarmine has a very nice smooth 'tiger pattern' glazing. The classic orange-brown sheen created by salt vapour glazing is typical of Rhineland stoneware from centres such as Frechen.
Overall, it is a fine example of a traditional Bellarmine jug: expressive face mask, strong form, and a well-preserved decorative medallion, all characteristic features of this iconic stoneware.
