Jug maker (profession)
For centuries in the Middle Ages, jug maker was a professional designation for people who used metal casting, in particular as a pewter , to manufacture objects for everyday use, in particular jugs, jugs and bottles. From this profession the flaschner developed and from this the profession of plumber .
