Pitcher 1879 - 1882

"Pitcher" is a ceramic pitcher designed by Christopher Dresser in 1879-1882. This work is now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Dresser's focus on form and function is evident in this piece, with its simple, elegant lines and geometric shapes. The pitcher's deep red glaze enhances its sleek aesthetic, while the subtle incised patterns add visual interest. Dresser's designs are well-regarded for their integration of functionality, aesthetics, and craftsmanship.
