Its tall, gently tapering cylindrical form and high-swept spout are the defining marks of the French farmhouse style that American collectors and interior decorators have long sought out in the country's brocantes and vide-greniers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white enamel carries the warm, slightly uneven glow that only age produces, giving the surface far more life than any reproduction could manage. The elegant proportions -- wide at the base, narrowing gracefully toward the pouring lip -- make it equally at home holding dried botanicals on an open kitchen shelf, displaying a handful of wildflowers on a dining table, or standing alone as a study in quietly handsome utilitarian design. No maker's mark is legible in the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age. The most notable characteristic is enamel loss and light surface rust at the upper handle attachment point, visible in photos 3 and 4; the body and interior enamel remain intact and clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApprox. 9.4 in tall (24 cm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e95% of my items are tariff-free to the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-shopify --\u003e","brand":"Fleamarketfrance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59017291333976,"sku":"FMF-KXPNVGQ2","price":116.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/5776\/2392\/files\/5b01412519ed5f6eeba366a3401df678.jpg?v=1793688031","url":"https:\/\/fleamarketfrance.com\/products\/antique-french-enamel-pitcher-white-blue-0311269","provider":"Fleamarketfrance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
