The body is finished in mottled white and deep turquoise with incised detailing, highlighted by hand‑applied gold accents that catch the light beautifully.
​
The underside is hand‑signed and numbered 30/50, indicating a limited production run for Elbee, a U.S. importer known for commissioning distinctive Fanciullacci designs in the 1950s–60s. A sculptural handle and flared neck give the ewer an elegant silhouette, making it an ideal focal point for a credenza, bookshelf, or mantel display.

Additionally, the ewer is sold with the brass display stand included, which provides a stable base and complements the warm gold accents in the glaze.
