A mosaic pottery pitcher by Jean Gerbino (1876 to 1966) of Vallauris, France. Gerbino is known for his mosaic technique, where small pieces of colored clay are pressed into the body to build up the pattern by hand.

Bands of patterned color wrap the whole pitcher, and because of the method no two pieces are exactly alike. Impressed mark on the base. Early French studio pottery from the 1930s.

Lovely with dried stems or on its own on a shelf or mantel.
