A classic Art Deco porcelain water jug advertising Ricard. In the south of France, tradition dictates that Ricard and other anise-flavored spirits are drunk with a side of water. Makers such as Ricard and Pernod provided advertising pitchers to local bars to increase their sales. This globe form is the classic shape from the first half of the 20th century. The bottom is marked "Ateliers de Céramique Ricard/Made in France". Origin: France, ca. 1930. Condition: excellent, no chips or cracks. Size: 5-1/4" tall at handle. |
