Help with this old pitcher.

I posted this antiques but maybe it’s better here. 300+ year old? Pitcher. Any info on this would be much appreciated.

Re: Help with this old pitcher.

What does a teapot made in Germany have to do with your pitcher?   Even if the note is authentic, even if its contents are accurate (two big IFs), I don't see what a German teapot has to do with your pitcher...?

 

And, in any event, any note stuck in any item is interesting and might be a place to start further research, but it cannot act an an identifier or provenance.

The note says "Germany" but your post on the Antiques site says it was made in Russia!  There is a Pottery & Glass group so maybe you want to post there too.

And, as noted, the note also says "teapot" and the piece is clearly not a teapot.

That too.  Yes.  Not a teapot.  Possibly the note is about another item entirely and just found its way to the OP's pitcher.
