Elegant fine porcelain pitcher with an integrated handle, featuring a refined hand-painted decoration by the Norwegian artist Grethe Aaslid in 1957. The piece stands out for its stylized mid-century silhouette and a naturalistic motif depicting two bullfinches on a flowering branch, executed with great detail and a vibrant color palette.
