Italian Faience Bottles Two 19th Century Pilgrim Flasks Blue Decor Almost a Pair

About the Item

A lovely pair of late 19th century pilgrim flasks of Italian origin,  from Central Italy and dating to approximately 1880,  realized in a very thick terracotta, the flattened ovoid shape painted with abstract blue, green and brown decoration  on whitish ground, painted just on frontal side. A set of two artworks. They are almost a pair since the two loops are in a different direction. One is a bit smaller and has different color decoration. The back is not decorated. One shows a label of a shop in Rapallo Liguria and a small chips on the basement. The vases are shaped in what’s known as a Pilgrim Flask or bottle, flat on both  sides and two loops for the shoulder cord; They are in good age related condition with  signs of wear, old restoration, see the repair at the base of the loop. See closed up picture detail. They come from a private  Milanese collection, we have many flasks, different shapes and colors, see listed pictures. Feel free to ask for any information you need. This artwork is shipped from Italy. Under existing legislation, any artwork in Italy created over 70 years ago requires a governative license for export called Belle Arti. The shipping may require additional 2-3 handling weeks to require and get the license according to the final destination of the artwork.
