This "Pitcher" from the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, NY was made in Chantilly, France between 1725-1740. The delicate floral motifs and simple form are characteristic of the Chantilly porcelain style, which emulated the popular Chinese porcelain of the period. The white background and colorful painted details of the pitcher are a testament to the skill of the French porcelain makers.
