A show-offy piece that can't help but catch the eye, it's known as a "tusk" pitcher or ewer--so called because its handle was designed to resemble an antler. This unusual and charming pitcher is beautifully embellished with hand-enameled and gilded floral sprays. Generous gilded detailing adds extra luster.

The pitcher is 8.25" high, from base to spout. The underside shows the Royal Worcester mark, with Reg No 37112 and pattern 1116, indicating that it was produced in the late 19th century. It's in very good vintage condition, with no chips, cracks, crazing. Light signs of age and use on the base gilding See less
