Pitcher 1852 - 1858

This whiteware pitcher, crafted by the United States Pottery Company between 1852 and 1858, features a charming, embossed vine design. The intricate details of the leaves and tendrils, combined with the unique, slightly irregular shape of the handle, create a sense of rustic elegance. This piece, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, exemplifies the simple yet refined aesthetic of mid-19th century American pottery.
