Bring a touch of Victorian artistry into your home with this exceptional antique Etruscan Majolica pedestal compote by the celebrated American pottery house Griffen, Smith & Hill of Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. Richly molded with raised pink and buttery yellow daisy blossoms intertwined with lush green foliage, this sculptural centerpiece captures the naturalistic beauty that made Etruscan Majolica one of the most sought-after ceramic art forms of the late 19th century.
The softly glazed lavender interior beautifully contrasts the richly decorated exterior, while the graceful scalloped rim and elevated pedestal make it equally stunning as a centerpiece, fruit bowl, or display piece. The impressed G.S.H. maker’s mark on the underside authenticates its production by Griffen, Smith & Hill, one of America’s premier Victorian majolica manufacturers.
