Antique Hand Painted Blossom Jug
An antique hand-thrown jug with a floral motif reminiscent of watercolour paintings and originating from Basilicata. The delicate surface decoration with its mix of sky blue and mustard browns set against an ivory glaze, showcases the skill of the artisan potter. Wine and water jugs from Puglia and Basilicata usually have the most extensive decorations and this one dates back to the late 1800s, with its lovely form, unique decoration and pinched spout that set it apart as a particular piece. Today, this terracotta piece would be ideal as a vase for fresh flowers or as a decorative display piece.
Found in Ostuni
the charming hilltop town in the Valle d’Itria known as the città bianca (‘white city’).
Dimensions: H20cm x W15.5cm x D13cm
These are handmade antique ceramics that are perfectly imperfect and some have been used for generations, so please expect some cracks, and chips, and discolouration. These individual characteristics are part of the charm and unique quality of each piece. Please note, colour may vary from screen to screen.
