Description :

This vibrant painted ceramic jar is reminiscent of a the breezy veranda of a Caribbean island house, with a nod to the festively painted elephants of Jaipur. A regal elephant dressed in a jeweled red blanket carries an urn piled high with pineapple, hibiscus blossoms, and palm fronds. The sunny orange sponged glaze is framed by a lime green band of flowers at the shoulder, with cheerful yellow handles and crisp black trim tying it all together. The matching lid is painted with more tropical leaves and blooms, and the interior has a warm butter-yellow glaze. Marked "West Indies, Made in China" on the base with some sticker remnants. In great condition with no chips or cracks noted.
