Milk jug 1770 - 1775

This 18th-century porcelain milk jug, crafted by the Ludwigsburg Porcelain Manufactory, showcases the artistry of German ceramic production. The white body is adorned with a vibrant floral motif, hand-painted in delicate hues of pink, red, and white, highlighting the craftsmanship of the period. Its elegant form and delicate details, including gold-gilded accents and a graceful handle, make it a striking example of Ludwigsburg porcelain, a style known for its fine quality and exquisite decoration.
