I've always been interesting in collecting. I have recently found a piece that struck my fancy in a thrift store. It is a Deruta ceramic pitcher. On the bottom, it has a few markings: a.s./E.4 and Deruta italy and two straight line, short. It stands about 8" tall or so and has two plate type identifiers on the front: on the neck is Michel Liqueur and the second on the belly says crème de Menthe *white* I do not know where to begin research on this item.. it is my first. I have already exhausted about three hours online for this purpose. All sites seem to require a paying membership. Question(s): Does anyone know anything about this item? Where is a good place to research collectibles (paid/free membership, free preferred? Thanks!!
