About the Item

Heading : Catalan or Spanish Càntir Date : 18th century Origin : Catalonia or Spain Colour : Pale green Type : Free-blown contiguous hollow body and foot, waisted to form rudimentary stem; two applied spouts at top, with base of missing ring handle showing evidence of blue trailing; body and spouts decorated with somewhat crudely applied white trailed latticino threads both internally and externally; Glass Type : Lead-free Size : 17.4 cm in height; 8.8 cm wide between extremities of two spouts; 5.8 cm diameter base Condition : Seemingly intact other than the missing ring-handle which would once have been affixed to the top Restoration : None Weight : 106g Notes : Larger ceramic or earthenware versions of these vessels were for utilitarian day to day use, whereas the glass versions such as this example were generally for display or ceremonial purposes - particularly christenings for the latter; we are advised that subtle differences in the shape of the aperture on the wider of the two spouts were pertinent to the gender of the child that was being welcomed in to the church.
