About this work

This is a black ceramic pitcher with a white handle. Painted on it are three stylized flowers with long petals and dotted centers, plus a zigzag line near the top. The pitcher’s simple shapes and bold white paint stand out against the dark background. It looks like something you’d use every day, not just display. Next, check out zigzag patterns in folk pottery to see how this design fits into a bigger tradition.
