Description from the seller

Faenza MA Pharmacy Apothecary Jar 30 cm - Bottega l’Odissea - Handmade Maiolica

*Description:*
I’m selling a splendid maiolica apothecary jar from Faenza, produced by the historic Ceramic Art Workshop “l’Odissea.”

*Features:*
- *Model*: Faithful reproduction of the apothecary jar “Cartella a fogliame Barocco” from the Pharmacy of the Imola Hospital
- *Label*: SANDALO - a typical vessel from a apothecary for herbs and medicines
- *Technique*: Entirely hand-decorated in white and cobalt blue, Baroque leaf style
- *Marks*: Hand-signed “L’ODISSEA FAENZA” on the bottom + certificate with MA Brand “Ceramica Artistica & Tradizionale Faenza” guaranteeing origin and quality
- *Dimensions*: H 30 cm - Ø max 18 cm - Ø min 11 cm. A substantial piece, very dramatic

*Conditions:* Authentic and highly decorative. It presents some small chips on the foot and on the knob of the lid, visible in the last photos. Being handmade maiolica, these do not detract from the vase’s beauty, ideal for Tuscan/rustic/classic style decor.
