SALE Majolica, 5" Floral Pitcher

Collectibles : Pottery : Majolica

 

Now here is an old item! It is a majolica 5" creamer/pitcher, in light blue, with pink and green floral decoration, and has a taupe interior color. It is marked on the base, Etruscan, Majolica, and has the center G,S,H mark inside a circle, and has a star on each side of the circle. Very hard to make out, but when you look the mark up, and compare it is the same. It dates to 1879-1889, and was manufactured by Griffin, Smith, and Hill. Reference the Collectors Encyclopedia of Majolica, page 74-75. There are two different photos of this piece in different colors on these pages. Great condition for it's age. No chips, cracks, or repair, only some light crazing. Sunflower on one side and some other type of flower on the other. Nice addition to a Majolica collection!
