Measuring approximately 8½–9 inches tall and about 7–8 inches across including the handle, it makes an eye-catching statement piece.

There are several small glaze/paint chips and areas of surface loss, primarily on some of the raised grapes and around the leaf/grape area near the top. Please review the close-up photographs carefully, as the chips have been intentionally photographed and are part of the condition of the piece. Despite the imperfections, the pitcher displays beautifully and retains its rich, vibrant color and wonderful sculptural character. The underside is stamped “HAND MADE IN ITALY.” A wonderfully whimsical piece of vintage Italian pottery that’s perfect for collectors of majolica, Italian fruitware and colorful statement ceramics.
