19th Century set of Three Glazed Confit Pots

About the Item

This charming set of three antique French confit jars exemplifies rustic elegance and traditional craftsmanship. Made from glazed terracotta, these jars date back to 19th century and were originally used in the French countryside to preserve foods such as duck or goose confit. The set includes three jars of varying sizes, each featuring a subtle creamy grey glaze with natural patina and imperfections, a testament to their age and history. The largest jar comes with its original lid, a rare feature that adds to its authenticity and charm. Each jar has a pair of side handles for easy handling, showcasing their functional design. The jars display unique variations in glazing, giving them a warm, earthy aesthetic that complements both rustic and modern interiors. While these jars were once utilitarian, they are now highly sought after as decorative pieces. Perfect for use as planters, kitchen storage, or purely as a visual accent, they bring a sense of history and character to any space. Please note that due to their age, these jars show signs of wear, which enhances their vintage appeal. These jars are a beautiful representation of French rural heritage.
