AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Refined and lively anthropomorphic pair of ceramic jugs for collectors, made in glazed ceramic and entirely hand-decorated. The objects depict two ducks with a strongly stylized influence from Pop Art and folk-Mediterranean, characterized by large expressive eyes and rich decorative details.
Both pieces feature wide floral and leafy decoration painted with a brush:
First jug (left): Decoration with large flowers and foliage in shades of sun yellow, ochre and brown on a light ceramic background. Equipped with a rear arched handle and a rear opening for filling.
Second jug (right): Graphic with sunflowers/stylized flowers in tones of warm brown, ochre and pine green details. Decorative detail with openwork on the handle/back.
Pieces with strong visual impact, perfect both as decorative collectible elements for display on sideboards and mid-century vitrines, or as pouring jugs for the table.
