This is a beautiful Wedgwood pink lustre pitcher. It is really dazzeling - it truely catches the light. Has a cream background and then this incredible pinky-almost at times, lavendar-copper floral and swirl design all over, with that same lustre solid on the handle and an edging affect all around the rim of the pitcher - STUNNING!

Bit of history: Lustreware became popular in Staffordshire during the 19th century, where it was also used by Josiah Wedgwood, who introduced pink and white lustreware simulating mother o' pearl effects in dishes and bowls cast in the shapes of shells, and silver lustre, introduced at Wedgwood in 1805. Lusterware or Lustreware (respectively the US and British English spellings) is a type of pottery or porcelain with a metallic glaze that gives the effect of iridescence, produced by metallic oxides in an overglaze finish, which is given a second firing at a lower temperature in a "muffle kiln", reduction kiln, which excludes oxygen.
