About the Item

A French rustic double handled jug from the 19th century, possibly from Normandy. Indulge in the charm of French pastoral life with this rustic double-handled jug hailing from the 19th century, likely originating from the heartland of Normandy. This antique jug served as a versatile vessel on French farms, diligently holding various liquids like oil, vinegar, water, or cider. The jug's history of everyday use is visible in its beautifully weathered appearance, a testament to its functional past. The jug sports a circular body that gracefully tapers towards the base, making it both sturdy and aesthetically pleasing. The narrow mouth of the jug is flanked with a pair of handles, a unique feature enhancing its historical charm. It is this design and utilitarian functionality that speaks to the jug's authentic country origins. Used both indoors on farm tables and outdoors in the fields, this jug was a quintessential part of rural French life. Its worn appearance, indicative of its regular use, adds an element of historical authenticity to the piece. Its aesthetic appeal is bound to enhance any space it occupies, adding a touch of rustic elegance to your decor. This French rustic double-handled jug is not just a piece of utilitarian pottery but a symbol of 19th-century French rural culture.
