Ok, this is my favourite picture. However I cannot take full credit for it. TS told me to take this angle with the hills and mists as the backdrop... Just love it!

This pitcher is one of the largest we have found. Wonder why we did not see pitchers that are the size of the giant sanguinea picture in Charles Clark's book

Thank you very much for sharing with some of us who may never get to see them in their splendor!
