About the Item

This 19th-century French Porte-Dîner, a shepherd’s lunch holder, features two stacked bowls joined by a gracefully arched handle and finished in a rich green glaze. Its rustic form and utilitarian elegance reflect the simplicity of rural life in provincial France. Originally used by shepherds and laborers to carry meals into the fields, this cleverly designed vessel emphasizes both practicality and charm. A rare example of vernacular pottery, it embodies the ingenuity and craftsmanship of its time. Today, it serves as a striking decorative accent, equally at home in a farmhouse kitchen or as a centerpiece filled with fruit or flowers. A beautiful reminder of France’s pastoral heritage. Wear consistent with age and use. One lid only. 12"w x 6"d x 9"h
