An 18th-century Spanish albarello from Catalonia, adorned with a scrolled label inscribed in elegant black script, set within rich blue and white floral and foliate decoration. The piece exemplifies the traditional albarello form, with a tall cylindrical body, gently waisted profile, and broad rim, originally devised for the storage of apothecary goods. The contrast between the formal script and the loose, flowing ornament lends the jar a distinctive charm, combining utilitarian history with decorative appeal. Well-proportioned and visually striking, it makes a refined display piece and pairs elegantly with the companion albarello currently available in our collection.
