Miscellaneous

I do a variety of other forms other than plates and bowls including vases water pitchers and table tops.  Maiolica vases and water pitchers are very decorative as well as functional.  

Pitchers

This pitcher decorated with a stylized "YHS" is a traditional religious design.  A water pitcher of this design can be seen in two 15th century paintings by Hans Memling.  The paintings are Madonna and Child, c. 1480-90 and Jug of Flowers, c. 1485-90 (reverse of a Portrait of a Young Man).
