Know before you buy
This pitcher has a generous capacity of 92 ounces, making it ideal for serving large batches of iced tea, lemonade, or cocktails at gatherings.
Because of the delicate hand-etched stainless steel and brass accents, this piece is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing with mild soap and drying immediately with a soft cloth to preserve the finish.
No, this design does not include a lid. It is intended as an open-top serving vessel to showcase the sculptural beauty of the ginkgo leaf motif.
The pitcher is designed to be gripped by the body. While it lacks a traditional handle, the balanced shape allows for a steady pour, though you should be mindful of the weight when the vessel is filled to its 92-ounce capacity.
No, this pitcher is not suitable for extreme temperatures. It is not freezer safe, and we advise against using it for boiling or very hot liquids to protect the integrity of the metalwork and brass accents.
