Its palette combines shades of ochre and olive green with a red comb and turquoise cartouches. The curved tail elegantly forms the handle, while the open beak serves as the spout.

Both sides bear the inscriptions "Le Gaulois" and "Chante clair pour la France" (Sing clearly for France), integrated into a relief foliage design. The factory mark and model number 658 are impressed into the base.

Both a collector's item and a decorative piece, this pitcher adds a touch of color and character to a sideboard, shelf, or country table.
