Details
A hand-formed Italian studio pottery jug with vibrant mid-century character. The surface is richly textured, with applied red and teal accents that trace zig-zag patterns and small sculptural dots across the mottled cream body. The rim is irregular and expressive, giving the piece a lively, vivid, joy-filled handmade presence. The glaze blends soft cream and clay tones with glossy colour, settling beautifully into the textured details. It works beautifully as a decorative accent, a small vase for a single stem, a creamer or simply as a collected object with personality.
Listing is for one jug.
Edition 1/1.

10 x 6.5cm

A Note on Character & Age
Each vintage and antique piece in our collection carries its own history - a quiet record of time, craftsmanship, and use. These are not new items; their gentle imperfections, subtle marks, and rich patina are part of what make them unique and beautiful.
We see these characteristics not as flaws, but as evidence of a life well-lived - the depth and texture that only age can bestow. Minor variations from the images may occur, reflecting each piece’s singular story. Unless otherwise stated, all sales are final.
