What the image shows

A porcelain pitcher with floral decoration and a pink woven lid.

Generated by LinkedCulture from the photograph alone, without the museum’s catalogue text (Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct), and not yet reviewed by a person. It describes the picture, not the object’s history, and it is not part of the museum’s record.

From the Cleveland Museum of Art record

Milk jugs with lids or covers usually held warm milk for coffee or tea.
