Lusterware ceramics like this were popular in Brazil and throughout Europe and the Americas during the mid-20th century. The glaze technique—often a mix of metal oxides—produced that iconic opalescent sheen, making each piece subtly unique. Amphora-style shapes nod to classical antiquity, while the raised floral motifs were a favorite among collectors of decorative yet practical homeware. Brazilian lusterware remains a cherished collectible for its hand-painted charm and shimmering finish.
