{"product_id":"mid-century-italian-ceramic-wall-pocket-blue-floral-design-857d4fa8","title":"Mid-Century Italian Ceramic Wall Pocket | Blue Floral Design","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a classic \"faux lavabo\" or wall cistern, made in Italy during the mid-century export era. While it looks like a traditional wall fountain—complete with a brass-toned metal spigot—it’s actually designed as a decorative wall pocket. These were popular for bringing a Mediterranean garden feel indoors without the need for plumbing. It’s made of earthenware with a white glaze and hand-painted blue flowers. You'll notice a dense \"crazed\" texture across the entire surface; this is a common feature in Italian pottery from this period and gives the piece its aged, vintage character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecifications\u003cbr\u003e• Origin: Italy (Hand-marked on the back)\u003cbr\u003e• Approx.
