Maid with Purse toby jug in a large size produced by Schafer & Vater of Rudolstadt, Germany, circa 1925. A maid, housemaid, or maidservant is a female domestic worker. In the Victorian era, domestic service was the second-largest category of employment in England and Wales, after agricultural work. In developed Western nations, full-time maids are now typically only found in the wealthiest households. In other parts of the world, mainly within the continent of Asia, maids remain common in urban middle-class households. The medium size jug stands 4 1/2" tall and the small size jug stands 4" tall.
