Lot description
The 18th century albarello is from European apothecary ceramics and is made of earthenware. Characteristic for this type of vessels is not only their shape, but above all the rich decoration, which includes dark blue paintings of an angel or putti with spread wings, a crown and plant motifs. Ceramics of this type were used to store ointments, dried herbs or medicinal substances, while the blue-white color combination is typical for pharmacy production of the time. more photos
