This pair of Vista Alegre serving pitchers hails from the renowned Portuguese ceramic house, crafted in the 1950s and 1960s. The set includes two pitchers, each adorned with a delicate gold rim and detailing on the handles, reflecting the timeless elegance characteristic of Vista Alegre's mid-century designs. The larger pitcher offers a robust presence, ideal for serving water, juice, or wine, while the smaller pitcher complements it as an elegant creamer or smaller beverage server.
Both pieces display graceful, minimalistic forms with gently rounded spouts for easy pouring. The gold embellishments add a touch of luxury to the pristine white porcelain body, creating a versatile and stylish set suited for both everyday use and special occasions.
Condition: Both pitchers are in good vintage condition with minor wear on the gold detailing, consistent with age. The smaller pitcher has a fine fracture, which does not compromise its aesthetic value but suggests it is best suited for decorative use or gentle handling.
Historical Note: Vista Alegre, established in 1824, is one of Portugal's most prestigious porcelain manufacturers, known for their refined craftsmanship and artistic innovation. These pitchers exemplify the brand's attention to detail and timeless appeal, making them valuable additions to any collection of fine porcelain.
Suggested Use: Display as a centerpiece on a dining table or buffet, or use as elegant serving vessels during gatherings. Their vintage charm also makes them perfect for decorative display in a china cabinet.
