Sea Horse toby jug produced by Sarreguemines of Lorraine, France, circa 1950, model number unknown. A seahorse is any of 46 species of small marine fish in the genus Hippocampus, from the Ancient Greek. Having a head and neck suggestive of a horse, seahorses also feature segmented bony armor, an upright posture and a curled prehensile tail. Along with the pipefishes and sea dragons they form the family Syngnathidae. This jug has a more recent Sarreguemines stamped mark dating the piece from the 1950s. Several colorways are known.
