This is a hand painted small pitcher or jug made by Noritake - the red backstamp M in wreath with Japanese characters underneath on the underside of the piece dates it, I believe, to just around 1930. The front is handpainted with a Venetian gondola scene against a stencilled silhouette of Venetian architecture. The piece has an interesting blue and green principle colour combination and is trimmed in gold paint. It has a height of 5 3/4 to the top of the lid. It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks or wear. This is a lovely Noritake jug - pretty addition to a collection!
