Large Charcoal French Oil Vessel

About the Item

Large Charcoal French Oil Vessel 19th century This stunning 19th-century French oil vessel is a beautifully crafted piece of history that exudes rustic charm and authenticity. Standing at 13 inches high with a width of 8 inches, this large jug is made from high-quality terracotta, giving it a durable and robust form. Its rich, earthy patina has developed naturally over the years, enhancing its antique character and visual appeal. The vessel features a classic design with a functional pouring hole flanked by small, rounded handles—often referred to as "ears"—which add both aesthetic and practical value. Its contours are accentuated by the deep charcoal hue, a result of the unique baking process that it underwent during its creation, which also imparted various earthy tones to its surface. Whether displayed in a kitchen or as a focal point in a living room, this earthenware jug is not just a decorative piece but also a testament to the artisanship of the past. Its presence in any space is sure to evoke a sense of timelessness and a connection to the rustic life of rural France in the 19th century. A truly magnificent find for collectors and decorators who appreciate the beauty of antique pottery and the stories it carries.
