The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Clear glass pitcher with a wide, wavy lip and a curved handle. The body of the pitcher is bulbous with a small base. The pitcher has a textured, diamond-shaped pattern. There are two large, rounded decorations on either side of the pitcher, each featuring a floral motif. The pitcher sits on a plain surface with a gradient background transitioning from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The pitcher is titled "Pitcher" and is by an unspecified artist.
