Antique Petite Savoyard Pitcher- 4¾"

A late 19th-century Savoyard pitcher in softly speckled earthenware, its cylindrical body finished in a warm straw-yellow glaze. The form is simple yet elegant, with a slender strap handle, a sharply pinched spout, and a double-rolled rim that frames the vessel with quiet strength. Hand-painted green roundels and vertical manganese dashes enliven the surface, capturing the rustic artistry of Alpine potters in Savoy. Light and well-balanced in the hand, it bears the gentle marks of age, with subtle rim nicks, small glaze losses, and a mellow patina that speak to its life in farmhouse kitchens. Once used for milk or cream, it now serves as a casual vase for herbs and wildflowers, or as a charming decorative accent in the kitchen. Its presence is both humble and authentic, bringing the warmth of French country tradition to both contemporary and classic interiors.
