Large and well decorated porcelain pitcher with a group of flowers on one side and on the opposite side inside a gilt cartouche “L. Cummings.” in Gothic letters. The country of origin may be either France, in which case it was probably brought here blank and then decorated here or possibly it was made by an American manufacturer. The hard paste porcelain is unlikely to have been made in England, though they did on occasion import French blanks. Anyway, nice decoration from about 1870. 9 inches (23 cm) tall and 9 ½ inches (24 cm) handle to spout.

Condition: no chips, cracks, hairlines or repairs. Very minor gilding wear on the handle.
