Description

The leather bottles and huge pitchers that adorn the castle, college, and manor-houses of England are a testament to the island's rich history. These venerable vessels, made from a material unlike any used today, seem out of place in the modern world. Yet, they are an integral part of the country's domestic life, a reflection of the radical changes that took place in the 18th and 19th centuries.
