Vacuum jug AIBDC : 006313SA Wouldn't you like to have one like that to take on a picnic? Its elegant chuncky shape and striking use of colour can't just have happened. Someone made lots of decisions to make it as it is. Can you tell us who were the indiividuals involved? Follow the case on the 10 Most Wanted website: http://10most.org.uk/artefact/vacuum-jug-0
