The design features a bold, architectural form with faceted, angular sides that create a dynamic, geometric silhouette. This strong form is softened by a vibrant turquoise glaze on the central band, contrasted with creamy, pale green panels above and below. The pitcher is further adorned with beautifully sculpted, three-dimensional sunflowers, adding a touch of naturalistic charm.

Perfect as a spectacular vase for a floral arrangement or as a standalone piece of decorative art, this pitcher brings a dose of history and eclectic style to any interior. It measures 8" wide, 6.5" deep, and 8" high. The piece is in great antique condition, with a beautiful, fine crazing to the glaze that is characteristic of antique majolica and adds to its authentic character. There is a minor, age-appropriate chip to the rim, speaking to its century-long history. Add this unique piece of ceramic artistry to your collection. See less
