American, mid 19th century reproduction from the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This parian porcelain pitcher features an appliqué decoration of jonquils and arching leaves rendered in high relief.
Parian ware, an unglazed porcelain resembling Parian marble was widely used for statuettes, pitchers, vases, trinket boxes, and tableware. The process for producing parian ware was developed by the Copeland factory in England in the 1840s, and later introduced to the Bennington factory in Vermont.
The reproduction is glazed on the inside. Wash by hand with mild soap and water.
Proceeds from the sale of all publications and reproductions are used to support the Museum. Upon request we will be happy to send you information about The Metropolitan Museum of Art, its publi-cations, educational programs, and the privileges of membership.
THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART
Gift of Dr. Charles W. Green, 1947

FYI: I do not have the original paper that went inside the base. What you’re seeing in the pictures is a copy.
