An antique American earthenware ewer with a pinched spout. The ware represents the synthesis of Near and Far Eastern shape and decoration characteristic of the Faience Manufacturing Companys vessels. The decoration of bird and butterfly amid raspberry branches is simultaneously indebted to Japanese motifs as well as those of the much admired English artists at the Worcester Royal Porcelain Company. Marked with a blue ink mark, and numbered, on the bottom. Circa: 1886 to 1990. American Decorative Arts, Desk Wares, Home Decor, Interior Design, and Collectibles.
