Majolica wares were all about representing nature, and this gurgle fish pitcher is no exception. These fish pitchers came in a number of variations, most of which dealt with color schemes and minor design differences.

The belly is white while the tale and bib are brown...

Considered to be in in excellent antique condition, all the afore mentioned lends to the authenticity of t...
