Vintage Inarco Japan Faux Wood Ceramic Pitcher with Black Scroll Detail
Considering this pitcher still has the original decal on the bottom, I would assume it was rarely used, if at all. This ceramic jug made in Japan by Inarco in the 1960s, looks like it was carved from a log, with a matte finish in several shades of brown. There is a raised black scroll and diamond design encircling the pitcher. The inside is finished with a glossy tan glaze.

Some imperfections to black painting that look like scratched in the photos, but they are simply areas of the design that didn’t get fully painted. Some light, shallow surface scratches to exterior. Two spare pieces of clay on the inside bottom that were glazed over during manufacturing and do not affect use.
