This exquisite antique Haviland & Co. Limoges porcelain pitcher captures the romantic artistry of the late 19th century. Handcrafted in Limoges, France between 1888–1895, it features a softly scalloped rim, delicate floral transfers in blush pink and sage green, and hand-applied gold gilt accents that shimmer along the edges and handle.
The shape is beautifully balanced with a flared top, elegant lobed body, and raised relief detail around the midsection — a hallmark of Haviland’s refined craftsmanship. The handle is richly gilded and textured, adding both form and flourish.
A stunning piece of Victorian Art Nouveau porcelain, perfect for display on a vanity, mantel, or as a romantic vase for fresh blooms.

Absolutely gorgeous! I bought this as a gift for my daughter and her fiancé. I think it’s going to be hard for me to give up, lol. It’s a beautiful piece!
It was packed very well and shipped quickly, thank you.
