Large jar shaped as a Jewish head, ridiculing his appearance. Anti-Semitic porcelain work apparently made in Austria in the early 20th century. The jar can be opened in its middle for things to be stored inside.
Many anti-Semitic porcelain works were made in the first half of the 20th century, indicating a wave of anti-Semitism that spread in Western Europe.
