Ceramic Jug With Shell Polychrome Decoration

About the Item

Ceramic jug with shell. Polychrome decoration, has an artistic and detailed design, combining softness and sophistication. The vase is gently inserted into a shell, with delicate and curved contours, giving the piece a fluid and natural movement, with soft but vibrant colors, in shades of pink, green, white and gold, skillfully applied to the flowers worked in relief, giving a sensation of three-dimensionality and texture. The carefully molded flowers stand out for their richness of detail, with delicate petals and finely sculpted foliage, conveying a sensation of freshness and life. The gold finish on the shell rim, base, mouthpiece and flower details adds a touch of harmony between sea and land.
