Its white porcelain surface is beautifully glazed, adding a lustrous finish that highlights the meticulous craftsmanship. The jar comes with a matching lid, enhancing its functionality and aesthetic appeal. The inscription 'BUTYR: CACAO' on the flask indicates its original contents or the substances it was intended to contain, providing a glimpse into its historical use in pharmacies. It likely stands for 'Butyrum Cacao' referring to cocoa butter, a fat extracted from cocoa beans commonly used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries for its emollient properties. Beyond its functional purpose, this jar serves as a striking decorative piece, embodying the elegance and refinement of French Provincial style. The artistry and attention to detail make it not only a valuable addition to any collection but also a testament to the enduring legacy of late 18th-century french porcelain craftsmanship.
