About Portuguese Trauliteiras:

The trauliteira is an iconic piece of Portuguese glass, traditionally used to serve water or other liquids at the table. The name derives from the French "trait" (line), referring to the characteristic decorative lines of these jugs. The three feet are a distinctive feature that gives stability and elegance to the piece, raising it from the surface and creating a sophisticated visual effect.

This type of jug was produced by several Portuguese factories throughout the 20th century, including renowned houses such as Vista Alegre and Sacavém, becoming highly sought-after pieces by collectors of antique Portuguese glass. The vertical embossed lines demonstrate the quality of the molded glasswork, while the crystal-clear transparency reveals the purity of the material.

Versatility of Use:

This serving dish can be used functionally to serve water, juices, or other beverages at the table, keeping the Portuguese tradition alive. Alternatively, it works magnificently as a decorative piece on sideboards, display cases, or shelves, especially in collections of antique glass or in decorations that value Portuguese heritage.

Ideal for collectors of Portuguese glass, enthusiasts of national antiques, those looking for authentic vintage pieces, or simply to add a touch of traditional elegance to the table or decor.
