via a handy key

the board on which it is mounted measures 9 3/8" x 7 3/8"

there are those black boots

or to have on hand just in case of an emergency

I am not quite certain if the small curves on the interior edge of the handle were intentionally made or not

Blue and White Hand-painted Antique German Stoneware Milk Pitcher Georgina era via a handy keyI'm rather obsessed with this old German milk pitcher I love the image of someone painstakingly painting all those rows of little blue triangles, which add up to the most perfectly imperfect surface decoration; just gorgeous. Over the years this pitcher has accumulated a really wonderful patina, too, with a little darkening here and there, which gives it just a fantastic presence and warmth. I can imagine building a whole kitchen even a whole cottage!
