Q: Can you tell me about a milk jug I have in the shape of a cow. The handle is its tail and the milk pours from its mouth. There is a small removable lid on its back so it can be refilled. It is made of pottery but has no makers name.

A: These creamers, as they are known, were popular in the late 19th century, the Victorian period, and original examples can fetch £150-£200 in good condition. However, they have been widely replicated, and modern examples are still available. Reproductions from the past 30 or 40 years are worth much less, fetching just £20-£30.
