Details
Salt-glazed stoneware with hand-painted flowers — a technique that dates to 17th century Germany and spread through Europe and America, prized for its characteristic texture (the glaze produces an orange-peel surface from the salt vapors in the kiln) and its durability. The hand-painted flowers on this piece are the kind of quiet decoration that rewards a closer look: unhurried, individual, the work of someone who took the time.
At 5.5 inches it is a generous creamer — substantial enough to hold enough cream for a full table, small enough to tuck beside the coffee pot without occupying the counter. It would be equally at home holding a small bouquet of flowers, a few stems of herbs, or pencils on a desk.
Vintage. Salt-glazed. Hand-painted. The minor variations in glaze and painted detail are not imperfections — they are the record of how it was made. Stock is limited and does not restock in the same form.
