Produced by the historic Höganäs factory, the piece boasts a generous 10-liter capacity, clearly indicated by the "10 L" deeply stamped into the clay just below the rim. The pot features a robust, bulbous silhouette flanked by two sturdy, ear-shaped handles. It is finished in a warm, light beige glaze with a subtle, organic variation in tone, elegantly detailed with three parallel incised bands encircling the upper shoulder. Maker & Year of Production Manufactured in Sweden by Höganäs, this piece likely dates to the early 20th century (circa 1900–1920s), a period when the factory was highly celebrated for its durable household ceramics. The unglazed underside is impressed with "508". See less
