Rare Vintage Ceramica Ericina Hand-Painted Glazed Ceramic Novelty Puzzle Pitcher / Jug from Sicily, Italy

A Rare Vintage Ceramica Ericina Hand-Painted Glazed Ceramic Novelty Puzzle Pitcher / Jug from Sicily, Italy. The writing in the rim says "Bevi Se Puoi" which translates to "Drink if you can". The trick to the Puzzle Jug is sealing a hidden hole on the handle to create a vacuum. By covering this, you can sip from a single functioning spout, causing the drink to travel up the hollow handle and rim via siphoning. It weighs 468g. Its measurements are 17cm width at its widest, 9.5cm diameter at the top, 10cm diameter in the middle, 6.5cm diameter at the bottom, and 12.5cm height. In excellent condition, no cracks, no chips, no restoration. A great addition to your Novelty, Quirky Items / Italian Art & Craft / Jug / Pitcher collection. Collectible. Collector's item.
