I don’t remember :-( — it was up to ten years ago. Before Google lens. Before I’d realized it was de Luna's mark. My image searches pull up vastly...
I emailed a museum in Madrid several years ago and they didn’t reply. I don't think it was the Ruiz de Luna museum as the marks were just shown...
Maybe? The Portuguese did it too in their old tiles.
His bio is really interesting —and those old motifs and methods they used made the jarron look like it could really be from the 17th C. Mine...
Great — thank you!
Yes, thanks — I’d finally figured it out. :-) It has the crescent moon in it.
Yes, thanks! I was trying to find a name for it in English. Neither a jug or a vase or an amphora sounded right.
I’ve had this jug for a few years. It’s a flea market find from Lisbon. Couldn’t find much information about it when I was searching back then,...

Well thank you! Mother’s Day isn’t till May where I am, but luckily your flowers will keep. Happy International Women’s Day to you, too!
That’s where the old jump ring was, wedged in between the front and the back, but the gap is now filled with the broken ends that stick out a bit....
Thanks! I was afraid of using any liquid on the ones with foil. I like fleamarkets but have a pact with DH — anything space-taking that follows...
It’s really interesting. I can’t find anything that has the same kinds of very heavy paws, fairly thin (?) spindles and a classical-looking head...
I use Windex ( equivalent) with vinegar on almost anything in the house. Don’t know if they have one with ammonia here. Can you use rubbing...
@kyratango Lovely piece and a great repair, Kyra! How did you get the sparklies so clean? (When you have time to reply…)
