Quail crafts each fox jug in stoneware with a hand-applied glaze, meaning the color tones vary from jug to jug. The British maker has specialized in animal-shaped ceramics for over 35 years, blending functional pottery with sculptural design. The jug measures 10 x 20 x 28 cm and is dishwasher safe, though hand washing will extend the glaze’s lifespan.
Care and Maintenance
The jug is dishwasher safe, but hand washing in lukewarm water best preserves the glaze colors over time. Avoid sudden temperature changes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Quail’s animal jugs and regular ceramic jugs?
Quail’s jugs are hand-painted with sculptural animal shapes, making each jug unique due to the hand-applied glaze. Regular ceramic jugs are typically machine-made with a uniform finish. Quail has specialized in animal-shaped products since 1987.
Can the fox jug crack if I pour boiling water into it?
Stoneware is fired at high temperatures and can handle hot liquids, but avoid sudden temperature changes — don’t pour boiling water directly into a cold jug. Warm it gradually or use lukewarm water first.
How much liquid does the Quail fox jug hold?
With dimensions of 10 x 20 x 28 cm, the jug holds approximately 0.8–1 litre, depending on how full you fill it. That equals about 4–5 glasses of water or milk for the breakfast table.
Is a Quail fox jug a good hostess gift?
Yes, it makes a great hostess gift for those who appreciate handmade ceramics and playful design. It is both decorative and functional, and Quail’s British craftsmanship has a strong reputation. The gift suits brunch lovers and ceramic collectors alike.
Why do the colors vary on Quail’s fox jugs?
Because the glaze is applied by hand and reacts differently during firing. Each jug is therefore unique with subtle variations in tone and intensity — part of the handmade character.

Handmade & unique product
Most of my products are handmade or hand-painted. This means that there may be variations in color, finish, and minor imperfections. These variations are a natural part of the handmade look and make each product unique. Minor differences are therefore not considered defects.
