Solimene Vietri Italy Campagna Porco, Vintage Pig Mug Solimene Red.
Called "Red" & definitely in the "Red" Family - But also kind of purplish-magenta.
The brush-work of the "Red" is very naive & rushed - But also adorably defines the pig & carrot.
In my minds-eye, I can visualize the process of this paint job ... And the guy swishing the brush around.

There is creasing & exposure of the white base through the "Red" - Especially around the handle.
Which leads me to believe the handle was adjusted slightly before the color was fired.
The handle is very secure & the mug has no damage, minor or otherwise.
