Beefeater character jug - DNW Ceramics circa 2000

Beefeater toby jug produced by DNW Ceramics of England circa 2000 using the Fielding's Crown Devon tradename and an imitation backstamp. Beefeater is the popular name for the Yeomen Warders, ceremonial guardians of Her Majesty's Royal Palace and Fortress the Tower of London. They are responsible for watching over prisoners in the Tower and safeguarding the British crown jewels, but in practice they act as tour guides and are a tourist attraction in their own right. They wear red and gold uniforms, white ruffles and black hats. Yeoman Warders, formed at Henry VIII's coronation, began guarding the Tower in 1485.
