    No, I believe yours to be original issue by Wedgewood.
    The base bottom and colors look exactly right for the early time period.

    I think it's spot on for Georgian. Pink was a wildly fashionable colour then and ebony was used as an accent in room decors.

    I see, that makes sense, I see now how popular those colours were!

    May I ask, would this piece be classed as bone china?

    Thanks

    How translucent is it?

    I would say not at all, it’s almost metallic or enamel in its finish.

    Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. Can you see through the base if you hold it to the light?

    I'd say bone china not porcelain then.

    on second look, when I place a torch inside the jug towards the base, the ceramic is translucent.

    I think given it's Wedgwood, bone china.
