A show stopping and elegantly shaped pitcher with exceptionally intricately patterned Art Nouveau lilac flowers remisiscent of peacock feathers. It is gorgeously opulent and restrained at the same time, as is all true French elegance.
 
The detail and the quality of the relief design make this pitcher stand out. Inside is an attractive Bordeaux colour
 
It would have been used as a water or wine pitcher at the table and dates from the Art Nouveau period from the late 19th century to the early 1900s
 
It stands 8" tall.
