Jug, French earthenware

An antique earthenware jug with a floral transfer print. The decoration of roses and wildflowers in nuanced shades of blue evokes the table arts of yesteryear; this type of motif corresponds to what is known as "naturalistic roses or romantic floral frieze." Its generous and slightly flared shape, combined with a pouring spout and an elegant handle, gives it a lovely presence. Despite its barely legible stamp, the style and craftsmanship are quite characteristic of manufacturers like Creil and Montereau or Saint Amand. Dating from the late 19th to early 20th century. Ivory email with some visible impurities from origin. Can be placed on the table or repurposed as a vase. Dimensions: Height: 14 cm. Width (from spout to handle): 21 cm. Diameter: 17 cm.
