Help To Identify George IV Pewter Jug Please

Discussion in 'Metalware' started by John Brassey, May 20, 2025.

    This quart (2pint) pewter jug with offset handle stands about 23cm tall. It is marked with a crown and GRIV for George IV and a lion rampant crown and Britannia in hallmark style. It is also stamped C over SY and inside the jug is an impressed pair of hands and THOs MAR - the rest is unclear.

    The vase has three incised words that I can’t make out.

    Can anyone here help please?

    I read the middle incised word as "House." Could it be followed by "England?"

    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    Sharpened & contrasted the inside for those 3 words/names, but still don't know what it says, even rotated it.....maybe not English language or someone else might see them better??!!!

    Thank you. I think one of the words is Croydon on the outskirts of London

    It might be an owner's name.
