Description
Hammered copper ewer or pitcher produced by Casagrande of Italy, featuring a broad rounded body, dramatic flared pouring spout, and applied hammered handle. The entire surface shows hand worked hammering typical of mid-century Italian decorative metalwork, giving the piece a rich textured appearance and warm aged patina. The underside bears the maker’s mark “Casagrande Italia” along with the number “19.” Measuring approximately 9.5 x 7.5 x 8 inches, this sculptural copper vessel reflects the organic, handcrafted aesthetic associated with Italian studio metalwork of the mid-20th century. Surface wear and patina consistent with age and use.
