1940s Pierre-Amédée Plasait Pewter Pitcher – Sculptural Fruit Relief Design This striking pewter pitcher by Pierre-Amédée Plasait showcases an elegant fusion of functional design and sculptural artistry. Crafted in the form of a barrel, it is richly adorned with high-relief fruit motifs, giving the piece a distinctive and decorative presence. The surface features finely detailed apples and foliage emerging organically from the textured body, evoking a rustic yet refined aesthetic. The gracefully curved handle and softly flared spout enhance both its visual balance and usability. Signed by the artist, this piece reflects Plasait’s mastery of metalwork and attention to detail. Produced in France in the mid-20th century, it bears the hallmark “Etain” confirming its pewter composition. Dimensions: Height 19 cm (7.48 in), Width 13 cm (5.12 in), Depth approx. 11.1 cm (4.37 in). The pitcher remains in good vintage condition, with visible patina and minor surface wear consistent with age, adding to its authentic charm. Its sculptural quality makes it equally suitable as a functional vessel or a decorative collector’s piece. Highly appealing to collectors of French decorative arts and Art Deco-influenced metalware, this signed work stands out for its originality, craftsmanship, and timeless character.
