Dimensions in cm: Height 16 x width 13 x depth 9 Dimensions in inches: Height 6 inches x width 5 inches x depth 3 inches J.S&S (or J.S.&S.B) metalware includes jugs (pitchers), tankards (ewers), crumb trays and brushes, crumb scoops, trays, salvers (chargers or plates), footed and handled trays of many varieties, tea caddies, chambersticks (candle holders), jardinieres (planters), watering cans, trivets, and ashtrays. JS&S pieces are English and appear to have been produced mainly in the early 1900's. J.S&S and J.S.&S.B registered design documents show the company name as Joseph Sankey and Sons, Limited with an address of Albert Street Works, Bilston, Staffordshire. The company was generally described as "Manufacturers" although an 1896 registration described it as "tin plate workers and japanners." Check out this link to the History of J.S&S and metalware in Bilston at a site by the Wolverhampton History & Heritage Society. JS&S is best known for its brass and copper pitchers or jugs. There are at least eight different designs and six different sizes. Some have handles attached to the lip and others have handles attached just below the lip. Some have have tops with thumb catches and others have two-piece flip tops. Some have Registered Design numbers. Most J S & S jugs will have a number on the bottom indicating the number of pints the jug holds (from 1 to 6). Designs include Art Nouveau, hammered (Arts & Crafts style), pebble, lizard skin, Willow, Honeysuckle, a bubble pattern and a Daisy style (plain with one daisy). The most popular jug design is an Art Nouveau style (with a clover at the top and six tulips below with the full design on two sides of the jug) Art Nouveau - style of art, architecture and applied art—especially the decorative arts—that was most popular during 1890–1910. English uses the French name Art nouveau ("new art"), but the style has many different names in other countries. Art Nouveau is also known as Jugendstil in Germany, as Modern (??????) in Russia, as Modernisme in Catalonia (Spain), as Secession in Austria-Hungary and as Stile Liberty in Italy. The style was most popular in Europe, but its influence was global. As a reaction to academic art of the 19th century, it was inspired by natural forms and structures, not only in flowers and plants, but also in curved lines. Architects tried to harmonize with the natural environment. It is considered a "total" art style, embracing architecture, graphic art, interior design, and most of the decorative arts including jewellery, furniture, textiles, household silver and other utensils and lighting, as well as the fine arts. According to the philosophy of the style, art should be a way of life. For many well-off Europeans, it was possible to live in an art nouveau-inspired house with art nouveau furniture, silverware, fabrics, ceramics including tableware, jewellery, cigarette cases, etc. Artists desired to combine the fine arts and applied arts, even for utilitarian objects.
