Gorgeous antique water pitcher by renowned French faience producers K&G (Keller & Guerin) of Luneville, France. Beautiful decoration in blue and white transferware in a formal 'Greek key' border pattern and faux-marble pattern. Originally a water jug for washing, this piece would make an excellent marble effect vase, centerpiece or being put back to work as a water vessel.
This piece dates to the late 1800s and still presents very well with its crisp white ground and lovely cornflower blue decoration. The transferware printing is very detailed but restrained and elegant. Almost the entire body of the jug covered in beautiful faux-marble effect, in a non-repeating pattern, and complemented beautifully by the bold Greek key border and delightful diamond and sunburst handle pattern - so much detail to enjoy in this piece!
Stamped pattern name 'Athénes' and K&G Lunville as makers mark on the base.
In excellent condition for age - no chips or cracks, very light signs of use and wear, including a few light scratches, no crazing, stains or discoloration. Please see photos for condition. Beautifully usable and displays very well.
Dimensions: 19cm diameter at widest point of the belly of the jug
14cm high (at highest point)
22cm maximum depth (from back of handle to front of jug)
A stunning geometric design in blue transferware, beautiful for wedding florals, a table centerpiece, or for display. A luxe way to add French design and superb antique style to your home!
Feel free to ask any questions :)
