This French ironstone water pitcher is a beautiful statement piece and marvellous for displaying larger blooms. . As well as the gorgeous blue floral patterning, the ironstone has a beautiful raised patterning, adding elegance and really making this piece stand out. 
 
Having been used for many years to bring water up to my ladies boudoir, there are some rubs to the  handle and rim, maybe where it has been scraped filling the jug, and one chip on the side of the spout. These are pictured here and more pictures can be supplied on request.
 
On the base is a French ironstone stamp of the rarer manufatcturer Labrut Frères dating it to the Art Nouveau period. 
 
This magnificent pitcher stands 10' tall
