Most Incredible Hawkes Teutonic Champagne Pitcher – SOLD |
This is a pitcher in the seldom seen and highly coveted Teutonic pattern by Hawkes (signed). The visual elegance of the Teutonic pattern is truly unrivaled and displays perfectly on this pitcher.
Chains of 8 flat hobstars intertwined with fans are draped down the sides of the pitcher and topped with one deeper more elaborate hobstar. In between each chain of stars is a long, clear flute which provides the most striking visual gradient. The beautiful handle is triple notched and a deeply cut 24-point hobstar covers the base. No detail was overlooked on this piece and even an elaborate hobstar is featured above the handle!
This piece is in the best condition I’ve witnessed. I was shocked when I received it as there is hardly a scratch on the entire thing and no repairs or damage to the rim! The tall pitcher measures 11 1/4″ tall and 5″ wide at the base. The top-quality and heavy blank only adds to the refined elegance displayed on this Champagne Pitcher.
