Beautiful vintage Italian hand-painted ceramic planter / cachepot.

Marked to the base:
“DEC. 4
MANC
ITALY”

This is a lovely, chunky piece of traditional Italian pottery featuring bold stylised flowers in cobalt blue, plum, red and lime green against a creamy ground with soft pink and teal banding. The hand-painted decoration has that classic rustic Mediterranean charm, with visible brush strokes and characterful glaze variation.

Likely mid to late 20th century.

Perfect as:
• A plant pot or herb planter
• Kitchen utensil holder
• Statement shelf display
• Colourful addition to a maximalist interior

Condition:
Good vintage condition. No cracks or major damage noted. Some age-related glaze crazing and minor wear to the base rim consistent with age and use. Please see photos as they form part of the description.
