A very similar object is in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, UK.
A very rare and unusual form and colour. The pale blue clay coloured jugs are hard to find.
A pale blue body, relief-moulded with a scene of gypsy woman telling a girl's fortune by reading tea leaves in the bottom of a cup: two woman seated at a table gaze into the cup which the elder one has lifted up from its saucer, while the younger one, in decolleté dress, leans forwards anxiously. Same image on both sides, gloss glazed exterior and interior.
Size: 7" by 6", 8 1/2" tall.
Condition: Excellent visual appearance, albeit the jug is cracked. See pictures. Great shelf piece, in a very rare and unusual form and colour.
