French Swirl Milk Pitcher

France, 20th Century

$155

Vintage

One-Of-A-Kind

Sylvie Favorite

Found in Montpellier but originally from Normandy, this yellow glazed ceramic milk pitcher carries the same playful spirit as its companion pieces. The wonderfully whimsical green swirl handle curls dramatically from the body, while the soft pedestal base and gently flared spout give the form an almost storybook feel. Pieces like this would have been used to pour milk or cream at the table, brought out alongside morning coffee or afternoon tea. Sylvie loves it sitting on open shelves or filled with a few stems when the table needs something cheerful.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.
