THE ORIGINAL GLUGGLE JUG – A British Icon Since the 1870s

We proudly produce and sell the original Gluggle Jugs – a true icon of British design. Handmade in England, these charming water pitchers have been delighting people around the world for over 150 years. Here's what makes them so special:

THE GURGLE THAT DELIGHTS

What sets the Gluggle Jug apart is its delightful ‘gluggle’ sound – a unique gurgling noise it makes when pouring, especially when the jug is about three-quarters full. A charming conversation starter and a source of joy at every table.

👉 Only the original delivers a real glug – loud and proud! Over the years, many have tried to imitate the Gluggle Jug, but none capture the authentic sound quite like ours. If you want the full glug-glug experience, there’s only one choice: the original, handmade in England, since the 1870s.

A PERFECT GIFT – BEAUTIFUL, BOLD & VERSATILE

The Gluggle Jug is more than just a jug. Its eye-catching design makes it a stunning centerpiece – perfect for birthdays, weddings, housewarmings, or just because.

Use it to serve water, as a quirky vase, a stylish decanter, a holder for utensils, pens, or even make-up brushes. Wherever it stands, it brings a splash of personality.

MADE IN ENGLAND – WITH HEART AND HERITAGE

Each jug is lovingly crafted in the heart of the Potteries, Stoke-on-Trent. By choosing a Gluggle Jug, you're supporting local craftsmanship, creating jobs, and keeping alive a proud tradition of British ceramics.

OVER 150 YEARS OF HISTORY

Originally designed in the late 19th century, the Gluggle Jug has stood the test of time. Its timeless design and irresistible charm have made it a beloved classic – and today, we continue its legacy where it all began.

HANDMADE WITH CARE

Each Gluggle Jug passes through six pairs of skilled hands before it reaches yours. A piece of craftsmanship you can see and feel.

DISHWASHER FRIENDLY

Fired at 1200°C, our jugs are robust and dishwasher safe. For our Lustre and Copper editions, we recommend gentle handwashing to preserve their stunning shine.

SECONDS – BEAUTY WITH CHARACTER

From time to time, we offer genuine factory seconds – still full of charm, but with minor glaze imperfections such as pinholes, clip marks or glaze runs. These are clearly marked on the base and offered at a lower price.

      Is it the original Gluggle Jug?
