The price is all-inclusive, no duties, taxes or shipping.
This medium-sized French confit pot, likely from the late 19th to early 20th century, is a fine example of traditional French pottery. The pot features a warm ocher glaze that covers the upper portion, with the lower section left unglazed to reveal the natural clay. This combination not only reflects its original use for preserving meats like duck and goose but also highlights the rustic beauty of provincial French ceramics.
The pot's surface displays a rich patina, with natural variations in the glaze and subtle signs of wear that add character and authenticity. The slight darkening around the rim and the occasional spots of wear give it a well-loved, antique appearance. The two handles, gracefully curved, are both functional and decorative, making the pot easy to carry and adding to its overall charm.
This medium confit pot is a versatile piece that can be used as a decorative object or for practical purposes, such as storing kitchen utensils or displaying dried flowers. Its timeless appeal and authentic French countryside aesthetic make it a valuable addition to any collection of vintage ceramics or rustic home décor.
