Vintage European Studio Pottery Jug, Hand-Painted Floral Design, c.1960s–70s

Product Description
£95.00
Maximum quantity available reached.

A striking vintage studio pottery jug dating from the 1960s–70s, distinguished by its sculptural form, richly textured surface, and bold hand-painted decoration.

The design combines stylised floral motifs with geometric patterning in earthy ochre, cream, brown, black, and muted blue tones. Look closely and you'll see this isn't simply painted—the decoration is incised into the clay, with delicate sgraffito lines and raised dot work adding depth and texture. The use of multiple glaze finishes, from soft matte surfaces to lightly crackled areas, demonstrates real confidence and control in the making. Twin loop handles and a short, forward-thrusting spout complete the sculptural feel.

Although unsigned, the jug displays the confident decorative language characteristic of European studio pottery from the period. The bold graphic decoration and organic form reflect the wider influence of Scandinavian and Eastern European ceramic design during the mid-twentieth century.

Condition

Very good vintage condition with age-related wear consistent with age and use. There is some expected glaze crazing and minor wear to the base, but no chips, cracks, or repairs. A highly decorative and well-executed piece with strong visual presence.
