A kitten that pours — with a tail for a spout, floral-covered porcelain flanks, and the timeless allure of Blue Onion in a form that makes people smile.
Baum Brothers Formalities released this figural cat pitcher in 1996 as part of a small collection of animal-shaped creamers in the Blue Onion tradition — the same pattern that originated with Meissen in 18th-century Germany and has been cherished ever since. This kitten has solid blue ears, a blue tail that serves as the spout, and a body covered in the classic blue-and-white floral motif. Stamped on the bottom: "Formalities by Baum Bros TM, Made in China."
Useful as a creamer, syrup pitcher, or sauce vessel. Beautiful as spring or Easter décor, or as part of a blue-and-white ceramic collection displayed year-round. The matching bunny pitcher is also available. A charming gift for the collector who appreciates a little wit alongside their craft.
