Jar

Description

Glazed pottery painted with vegetal motifs, especially on the front area. This is combined with two butterflies in a blend of green and blue. The decoration also extends to the top, around the mouth of the piece, and around the base, with blue lines that contrast against the white color of the rest of the object. This type of pottery, which originated in the 18th century, was highly successful in the region of Asturias, playing a significant role in the development of a competitive pottery industry in the area.
