Pfaltzgraff Tea Rose Stoneware Canister
This is a vintage lidded canister from the 'Tea Rose' pattern by Pfaltzgraff, likely dating from the mid-1980s to the 1990s. The piece is constructed from durable, heavy-weight vitrified stoneware with a smooth matte or eggshell finish in a classic cream/off-white tone. The central motif features a delicate, watercolor-style transfer print of pink roses and blue blossoms accented by sage green foliage. A notable structural feature is the raised, double-arched sculpted ridge encircling the upper shoulder of the canister, which provides depth and a provincial texture. The matching lid is domed with a circular knob finial, still partially wrapped in protective plastic. Its rounded, bulbous base tapers slightly to a flat foot. Regarding condition, the piece appears well-preserved with no visible chips or surface crazing, though a thrift store price label is adhered to the side which may leave residue. The craftsmanship reflects typical high-quality American mass-market pottery production of the late 20th century, designed for both decorative appeal and functional kitchen storage.
