13" long x 9 1/4" deep x 4 1/2" tall

This complete set of five

Definitely mid-century and Italian I believe (the white glazed bottom is common to Bitossi)

Willem Klijn Pencil Drawing of Man in Hat and Glasses, 1910, Brussels red-orange 13" long x 9 1/4"This hatted and bespectacled man reminds me rather of James Joyce a smart, serious, and quite sensitive young man. And I find this drawing, which appears to have been rendered on the back of a white paper receipt or wrapper, so romantic, conjuring visions of early 20th century European cafe life I can just see Dutch artist Willem Klijn sitting quietly in the corner by a window, dashing off this sketch while lively intellectual banter rises all around
