This model is distinguished by its relief decoration of fleur-de-lis, a powerful symbol of French decorative heritage, delicately arranged on the body. The purity of the white earthenware particularly highlights the relief work and lends the whole a simple and timeless elegance.

The generous shape of the body, the slightly flared neck, and the twisted handle testify to a refined artisanal skill, typical of Malicorne productions from the late 19th century.

In excellent condition, with a small chip on the foot and minor signs of age consistent with its age, without detracting from its aesthetic appeal or sturdiness.

This pitcher will find its perfect place as a decorative piece, on a table, a sideboard, or in a refined display, whether in a classic interior, a château, a chic country house, or in a more contemporary setting seeking contrast and authenticity.

A distinctive, elegant, and historic piece, emblematic of the excellence of Malicorne earthenware. This piece has an attribution mark,
