1980? Noritake figural pitcher ornamented with fox and grapes. 7½" high at the top of the handle and about 6" wide at the widest portion of the base. $9.99 from Victoria Green, Bloomfield, Hills, MI, through eBay, Oct., '08.
"Made expressly for Noritake in China." Strong maroon, green, and brown colors against a white background. The fox lies around the front of the pitcher's base, while the grapes hang down from the point at which the handle connects with the top of the pitcher. The seller aptly describes the pitcher as a holiday pitcher, especially because of the festive ribbon around the pitcher's neck. The fox is skillfully added to the front of the pitcher. I presume the pitcher is meant for pouring wine: the guests get some, but the fox, quite alert, is still thirsty! - Date
