Unusually textured glaze. I thought it was W. German at first.

I've been confused by that textured version too before now. Sometimes it can be a strikingly bright orange - which I've mistaken for Czech in the past - and other times more of a sage and muddy green. There was a tea set in the green colour in one of the local charity shops for ages.

Hello, I recently picked up this jug and was surprised to see that it was SylvaC, as its design is unlike anything I'd seen by them before. Since then I can't find anything similar and wondered if anyone knew if this was from a certain range or from a specific time period? Many thanks :)

Probably 1950s

Definitely the right mark for 1950s.
