DescriptionThis ceramic pitcher encompasses a cream, off-white color throughout. The upper mouth is circular, leading to a curved spout on one end. A curved handle with several repeating, decorative raised segments is visible, attached to one side of the pitcher. The central body of the pitcher is composed of a rounded form, held in place with a flat, rounded base at the bottom. The central surface of the vessel showcases an etched depiction of a light pink flower surrounded by green leaves and a small flower directly above it on one side. The latter side includes an etched depiction of one large light pink flower and one large white flower surrounded by green leaves. The underside of the pitcher includes what appears to be the name of the artist in etched lettering, followed by "USA" directly underneath it. What appears to be the numbers "73-43" are visible just underneath it in the same etched lettering.On View
