Antique glass jugs have long been a staple in households for serving and storing beverages like water, milk, juice, and other liquids. Among these, a particular standout is the delicate wine decanter jug, revered not just for its utility but also as a decorative item on the dinner table. Gurgly has taken this iconic Glug jug and given it a modern makeover, increasing its size and capacity while streamlining its shape to enhance its aesthetic appeal. This jug, now more attractive and contemporary, is sure to elevate any party or gathering.
Further embracing the charm of traditional craftsmanship, we find the French-style Wheel Thrown Stoneware Pitcher. This ceramic jug, adorned with hand-painted Barbel Fish, is a testament to the intricate art of clay. It serves as a versatile piece, acting as a water canister, ceramic ewer, or even as an artistic statement piece. The litre jug design is perfect for the dining table, with the ability to serve Sangria in true Spanish style. These jugs are available in various bright colours, offering options like a large gluggle jug to create a stunning centrepiece, or a mini gluggle jug that doubles as a quaint bud vase.

The Dartmouth Devon Gurgling Fish Jug, standing at 23 CM tall and in a dark green hue, is a fine example of such craftsmanship. Inspired by late 19th-century Staffordshire pottery, these traditional fish-shaped pitchers are not just functional but also serve as conversation starters. Whether used as a water jug, flower vase, or utensil pot, their unique design, complete with scale, fin, and face details, is captivating. The jug’s handle, formed from its curved tail, and a sturdy base add to its practicality and charm.
Vintage enthusiasts will appreciate the Gurgle/Gluggle/Guggle fish jug, a vintage vase from the 1970s crafted by Kernewek Pottery in Cornwall. This Brown Honeycomb design is a collector’s delight. In addition, Tony jug fishes in waters that most catfishermen overlook, such as the edges of underwater river channels, with jugs on Lake Eufaula. These fish-shaped gurgling jugs, designed to make a ‘glug glug’ noise when liquid is poured, add a playful element to any setting.
For those with a penchant for unique home decor, the Hanging Hydroponic Glass Planter and Mini Fish Tank serve as a Transparent Terrarium Vase Decoration. Ideal for plant cuttings or as a Green Dill Vase, these pieces blend the beauty of aquatic life with botanical art, creating an enchanting display.
