Superb vintage stoneware jug signed JPG, probably dating from the 1970s. This handcrafted piece stands out with its beautiful caramel brown glaze, enhanced by numerous silver metallic flecks typical of pyritic stoneware, which is highly sought after today in vintage decor, wabi-sabi, and seventies styles. Its generous and balanced shape, elegant handle, and mineral appearance give it a strong decorative presence. Both authentic and timeless, this jug can be used as a carafe, vase for dried or fresh flowers, or simply as a beautiful decorative object in a kitchen, country house, or retro chic interior. The base bears an engraved mark “JPG”, a signature made by hand before firing, attesting to artisanal workshop craftsmanship. • Era: 1970s. • Material: glazed pyritic stoneware. • Handcrafted. • Engraved signature “JPG” under the base. • Colour: caramel brown with silver metallic inclusions.
