Pitcher perfect
An original design by Jens Quistgaard from 1955, this pitcher features elegant curves and vivid hues on glossy enameled carbon steel—signature black rim included. And that wrapped handle? It’s retro at its finest. This was one of the top styles our community asked us to reissue. Now, after more than 50 years out of production, it’s back with a slightly larger body than the original.

- Care:
To ensure your pitcher has a long life, please note:
It is not dishwasher- or microwave-safe. It should never be heated or used for cooking.
To clean, use warm or hot soapy water to wash the enamel surface; rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly with a soft, absorbent cloth. Avoid using steel wool, scouring pads, oven cleaner, or abrasive cleaners on the pitcher, as this can damage the enamel surface.
To remove grime, fill the pitcher with hot soapy water for 1 hour. Then, follow the steps above to clean as usual.
Never pour hot water into a cold pitcher, as the rapid temperature change could damage the enamel.
To treat discoloration of the enamel, apply a combination of household vinegar and warm water, using 1 teaspoon of vinegar for every 1 pint of water. Soak for 1 to 2 hours, then clean as usual (see above).
