DescriptionA hand-painted, amphora pitcher in a tall, urn shape with a small base and even smaller opening at its top. There is a tubular spout on the front side with a very short handle connecting its top to the pitcher's top edge. A larger handle lies on the back side of the pitcher. All of these components are painted a very dark blue. A band of intersecting triangles in dark green and light blue decorate the neck of the pitcher. Bigger triangles lie around its bottom edge. The vessel is painted dusty blue and has a robed woman on one side. A light blue flower lies on either side of her and another appears on the opposite side of the pitcher. Above it, is a square outlined in very dark blue and filled with small white and light green squares in a checkerboard design. A stamp on bottom reads, "Made in Czecho-Slovakia Amphora".On View
