Perfect Form - Vintage Ribbed Studio Pottery Pitcher Incised "R" antique carved whimsy And on the other side

And on the other side

traces of old writing across the surface of the slate

but would think Victorian era

So great in every way

Light age toning to the ruled paper but in excellent structural condition

Perfect Form - Vintage Ribbed Studio Pottery Pitcher Incised "R" antique carved whimsy And on the other sideAn excellent pitcher to display atop the old painted stool I just listed perfectly complementary. Pitchers are my favorite form of pottery, and the combination of boxy, ribbed body, swoop of a handle, and narrow neck opening to wide lip on this one is really beautiful. Hand thown and incised with a "R" on the underside; I have not identified the potter. Earthy modern, mid late 20th c. I believe. 6 3 8 t x 3 1 2 d at base. 5 1 2 across at handle spout.
