Another creation by Wade, each Gluggle Jug is designed as a fully functioning water jug but has its own sound effects! At 3/4 full,when being poured, each jug will gluggle merrily.

Glug Glug Jugs were originally made by Thomas Forester & Son in Staffordshire in the late 1870’s.  However, most people will associate these jugs with Dartmouth Pottery, who originally produced a fish shaped water jug which they called ‘Gurgling Fish Jugs…..a novelty which always attracts attention’.

Gurgling jugs were intended for use as water jugs – they inherited their name due to the sound they made when liquid was poured out.  They were also used as advertising items by breweries, and over the years hundreds were made to advertise ‘Plymouth Gin’.
