Black pottery outlets pitcher, stoneware pitcher, black pitcher, black pottery vase

This stunning, stoneware pitcher could be used in many different ways as well as fit with many decorating styles. The beautiful glossy black and purple/blue accents play nicely together. It is glazed on the inside as well, so would be suitable to hold liquids.
It is in excellent condition. The bottom is clearly signed, however I am unfamiliar with the artist.

This pitcher is about 7 outlets 1/2 inches tall, 8 inches spout to handle,
with a 4 1/2 inch opening
