VINTAGE 1940'S UNIVERSAL CAMBRIDGE CATTAIL PATTERN WATER PITCHER GOOD CONDITION

Description

This listing is for a MCM water pitcher by Universal Cambridge Oven Proof in their CATTAIL patter.  It measures 7 by 7 and 3 inches wide, and I doubt if it holds much more than a quart. This piece is in very good condition with no damage or issues that I can see.  The cork in the spout is good.  There is fine crazing to the glaze all over, but that is typical of these wares.  I have a covered dish in this pattern listed in my store along other MCM pieces and hundreds of antiques and collectibles.   All of my items were found in estate sales and cleanouts on Cape Cod.  None of the items have been touched by the public, just stored in totes. All items have been stored for weeks or thoroughly washed.  I am in a low risk area and I am observing all precautions for virus protection.
I TRY TO USE THE CHEAPEST RATE POSSIBLE ON USPS, using FIRST CLASS, MEDIA and PARCEL SELECT rates whenever I can. Books under one pound will always go First Class, because it’s much faster than Media for only a little more money.  I get a great discount on Priority Mail from eBay, so often when I buy the label Priority is about the same as Parcel Select or the other Standard Mail rates.  If it only costs a little more, I will absorb the extra cost myself to get the free insurance with Priority and then I can use the free boxes they provide.  It won’t cost you more than the Standard Mail rate listed for your purchase. If you want Priority to speed delivery, you can always ask for that option, and I am likely to refund a small amount of postage when I buy the label through eBay and get my discount.  Priority is much faster, no doubt.  I pack carefully, and fragile items will always be in an ample-sized, sturdy box with lots of bubble wrap and foam peanuts used.  I always use recycled peanuts, and when the virus is over, I will go back to using sturdy used boxes whenever I can.  I only use USPS, because FedEx and UPS have told me at their offices here on Cape Cod that they WILL NOT insure antiques and collectibles.  I have had 22 years of excellent service from USPS, with only a few problems out of thousands and thousands of packages sent.
