This is actually pewter, I have the same one, mine is 14", they came in two sizes 7" and 14". They were made in Italy, and are "Stash-box" pitchers. The top part of the pitcher detaches from the base, where valuables would be "stashed". They won't hold water for very long, as it will leak like a sieve at the connection of top to base. The bottom should show 95-100, that is the pewter, it indicated the amount of lead to metal alloy. I have see them for sale from $45 - $215. Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.Image removed.v
