This colorful ceramic jug is a handmade object from Ravenna, Italy, dating from the 1960s. The design stands out due to its rich, mosaic-like decoration and the use of real gold, giving it a distinctive and luxurious appearance.
The jug is crafted from ceramic and hand-painted. The surface displays a detailed pattern of floral motifs and geometric shapes in vibrant shades of blue, green, and gold. The finish with gold accents, as stated on the original label on the bottom ('Hand painted with gold'), emphasizes the artisanal character of this Italian piece.
The object is in very good condition, befitting its age. The colors have remained bright and the gold details have retained their shine. The original silver-colored label and the handwritten markings on the bottom are still clearly visible and intact.
This decorative jug is a refined addition to an eclectic or vintage interior. It comes into its own particularly well as a striking accent piece in a display cabinet or on a sideboard, where the light can highlight the gold details.
