THIS AMAZING PITCHER CAN BE FOUND IN TWO BOOKS ON’TERRE VERNISSÉE’. POTERIES RUSTIQUES’ BY P. FAVELEC ,’TERRES VERNISSÉE’ BY BEATRICE PANNEQUIN. THESE REMARKABLE MARRIAGE PITCHERS WERE RARELY MADE AS IT THEY WERE NOT INEXPENSIVE FOR A POTTER IN ALSACE TO MAKE THE TRADITIONAL ALSACE MARRIAGE. THE INITIALS WOULD BE OF THE HUSBAND AS THE WIFE WOULD TAKE ON THE SAME INITIALS WITH A’MADAME’ AT THE START OF THE NAME. THERE WERE TWO TYPES OF POTERIES MADE IN THIS FASHION AT THE CELEBRATION TO GIVE TO THE MARRIAGE COUPLE. THIS FORM HERE, THE MARRIAGE PITCHER AND THE FORM IN A ROUND POT FORM WITH A LID AND A BIRD ON TOP. YOU CAN SEE THE RUSTIC DEISGN IN RELIEF THAT WAS TRADITIONAL FOR CENTURIES IN ALSACE. THIS PIECE WAS MADE.. PROBABLY AT THE END OF THE 17TH C OR THE DEBUT OF THE 18TH C. THE PIECE IS IN PERFECT CONDITION WITH TONS OF AGE EFFECT FROM HUNDREDS OF YEARS. I HAVE FOUND THREE IN 25 YEARS. I HAVE SEEN THE POT FORM IN THE MUSÉE D’ALSACE’ IN STRASBURG. 9 INCHES IN HEIGHT. I WONDER WHAT THE INITIALS STOOD FOR….. MAGNIFICENT AND QUITE A’POTERIE ATOMIQUE’ TO OWN.
