Large Antique Copper Lidded Pitcher with Curved Handle
Large Antique Copper Lidded Pitcher with Curved Handle

Large Antique Copper Lidded Pitcher with Curved Handle

Located in LA CIOTAT, FR

This unusual large copper pitcher dates from the 19th century and is distinguished by its elegant proportions, substantial size and beautifully aged surface. The vessel has a tall tapered body with a broad rounded shoulder rising into a narrow neck and pronounced pouring spout. A long curved copper handle extends from the upper section to the shoulder, completing its graceful and highly recognizable silhouette. Particularly appealing is the original hinged copper lid, shaped to follow the sloping opening of the pitcher and fitted with a thumb-operated lifting mechanism positioned above the handle. The construction and numerous subtle irregularities visible throughout the piece give it the unmistakable character of antique utilitarian copperware. The surface has developed a wonderfully rich natural patina over time, combining warm reddish copper and golden tones with darker areas of oxidation and occasional traces of verdigris. Scratches, small dents, surface variations and other signs of use remain visible and are entirely consistent with the vessel’s age and utilitarian history. With its large scale, warm color and sculptural form, this antique copper pitcher...

Vintage, New and Antique Pitchers

Perfect for entertaining, a dinner party or a small luncheon, vintage, new and antique pitchers are versatile pieces to keep in any collection.

Whether you’re dining in the great outdoors, freshening up drinks in the living room or making a batch of fresh-squeezed juice for breakfast in the kitchen, a pitcher is a must-have feature of your dining and entertaining set.

Prior to indoor plumbing and the advent of sinks, people paired a pitcher with a wash basin on their bedside stand. Today, an antique washstand might be used as a nightstand or bedside table. These pitchers, along with the washstand, were essential in any bedroom.

Today, in displaying vintage ceramic pitchers on your Welsh kitchen dresser or in a corner cupboard, you’re inviting a pop of color and an alluring texture to mingle with your other serveware. But when entertaining, you’re likely going to put this decorative vessel to work. Some glazed stoneware and metal pitchers are outfitted with hinged lids to provide insulation, while potters and other craft artists at the time might have made complementary glasses or teacups to pair with their pitchers for a complete serving set. Glass and stoneware pitchers are perfect for serving beverages, but if you’re serving from a metal pitcher, you’ll want to ensure that the material is food-grade stainless steel.

For a simple home accent, consider using that wonderfully aging vintage metal pitcher as a vase for your flowers (be sure to use a watertight plastic liner or insert) or as a receptacle to display and organize your cooking utensils. Given the venturesome design sensibility that we associate with mid-century modernism, a mid-century modern pitcher is going to prove a unique and sophisticated decorative touch to any room in your home. While your farmhouse-style interior is practically begging for the earthy tones of a terracotta pitcher, an ironstone pitcher will bring ornate details to your mantel.

Find a collection of new, vintage and antique pitchers today on 1stDibs.
