This is an early ovoid jug with lug handles. It is glazed. I bought it from a family where it had been in her grandmother's things forever from North Central Texas. It is in good condition (no hairlines), with one chip around the mouth. It measures 17 ½ inches tall and the mouth opening is 7 ¼ inches.
Meggido Collection Desk
Description:
This desk was given to me after it received some Hurricane damage during Hugo (1989) and I have been the sole owner since then. I completely restored it, as well as recovered the original chair seat. It is made from teak and all other ornamentation is solid brass. I overlaid the top with a synthetic leather. There are two seals on this piece and they both read "The Meggido Collection" made in Israel. I know it was purchased around 1972 in Israel.
