Pitcher 1876 - 1886

Christopher Dresser’s “Pitcher” (1876-86) is a prime example of the British designer’s preference for geometric forms and clean lines. A leading figure in the Aesthetic Movement, Dresser was known for his innovative designs for everyday objects, as seen in the sleek, symmetrical profile of this silver pitcher. The piece exemplifies Dresser's commitment to functionality, with its simple, elegant design and the use of high-quality materials, it is a testament to the beauty and practicality of his work. The pitcher can be viewed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
