Antique French cruche w/ petit spout & yellow-beige glaze 13"

A superb Provençal cruche from the nineteenth century with a pale tan-yellow beige glazing and its original lid cover. Ewers like these were used for fetching water from the village fountain for domestic use. This piece would be the perfect addition to an existing collection of pottery or to add a special touch of French to your home.
