Up for sale is this uniquely charming ANTIQUE CREAMER /PITCHER with a detailed hand painted raised design depicting two boys making bread & butter? with an ornate handle and an embossed raised mythical face at the spout.
This piece is unmarked and I believe it to be CAPO DI MONTE pottery after doing a bit of research. My gut feeling is this is a real treasure! I cannot find anything like it.
The colors are beautiful in deep blues, greens, plum, rust, brown and black all up against a cream background. Both sides of the creamer seem to depict two young men sitting and kneeling, either making bread or having a picnic. Very sweet picture. The front of the spout has a raised male face which looks like a character from mythology.
Really very unique!Measures approximately 4 1/2 inches high from bottom to top of spout X 4 inches from handle to spout X 2 5/8 inches across the base.
Overall condition is very good considering it\'s age. There is a small hairline crack from to top of the spout to the top of beginning of the face and a chip next to it,also some rough spots on the handle, not sure if they are actually chips, just typical bumps and wear on the glaze with crazing throughout the pottery. I always liked the way that looks.This is truly a charming and rare piece!Yet Another, \"OH I GOTTA HAVE IT\"! here at DOLLFACE18!
Thank you so much for looking and happy offerding!
