Offered for your private collection is this beautiful antique majolica humidor.
Made in the 1800's, it is marked on the bottom with the impressed numbers "9477/20" and two initials under glaze.
This form was usually made in Austria.
The base is green with a pink cartouche on the font and back.
The front cartouche has multiple darker pink flowers in it and the back cartouche has a central bottom flower and a flower on each top edge.
It sits on four feet.
The lid has a pink water lily with green leaves floating on the blue water. The edge of the rim is green.
On top of that is a very decorative pipe.
Flip the lid over and you find the hold where they use to put a damp sponge in order to keep their tobacco humid.
Hey, so if you look at this word as if it were French you have humid-or or humid gold!
This lovely antique humidor is in excellent antique condition, I see no chips or cracks! It does have over all glaze crazing due to age which is normal for antique majolica.
It measures 5 inches long, 3.5 inches wide and stands 4 inches tall to the top of the pipe.
Add this to your personal collection today or give as a fabulous antique gift!
