Hey Sean, check out this Antique Pitcher/Ewer from Austria. I think this was a totally different company than the one that made yours, but this one has alot of similarities to yours as in they are both Art Nouveau, Both Pottery/Ceramic, Both are decorated in the same fashion with a detailed sculpted neck and mouth, both have stylized handles, Both have hand painted flowers...I think I have made my point....lol Anyhow Im sure that you will be thrilled to find that the one on Tias.com is valued at nearly $800.00 Not a bad investment of your $22 if yours if you can....Dont Hate Me--- "Attribute" your Ewer the same as that one. LMAO:)
One more thing, It just occured to me that the flowers on yours are Cherry Blossoms. If in fact those are bunches of cherries on the neck close to the handle?
I dont hate , because of "Attributing , ill let it go this one time only!!!! LOL:)
Thankyou for your help JayHow!!!!!!!!! very nice of you:)
