Description
Demijohn originally referred to any glass vessel with a large body and small neck, enclosed in wickerwork. The word presumably comes from the French dame-jeanne, literally "Lady Jane", as a popular appellation; this word is first attested in France in the 17th century. In Italian it is called damigiana, most probably derived from French. In Spanish-speaking countries it is also referred to as damajuana. An alternative etymology derives it from the name of a Persian town, Damghan, but there is no evidence for this.
