    20200814_100849.jpg 20200814_100828.jpg Does anyone know what this pitcher is made from and where it might have come from. Cleaning out junk and before I toss it I was hoping to find someone who could help with these questions.

    The soldered appliques are falling off,it looks like an inexpensive piece from Pier One imports.

    Thanks for the input from both of you. My Grandmother brought it from France when she came her in 1913 so it must be a little old. I'll keep searching and hoping someone can help. I do agree it's beautiful but I'm old and time to get rid of things.

    I'm sorry, Johnny, what is a chop mark?

    Here's a picture of the bottom and inside in case that's where a "chop mark" might be.
