French 19th Century Pottery Jug with Orange Glaze, Back Handle and Front Spout

A French Provincial pottery jug from the 19th century with brown and orange glaze, tall narrow mouth, double handles and front spout. Imbued with a heartwarming rustic charm, this 19th century French Provincial pottery jug invites the beholder to a quaint countryside abode. The generously rotund body, effortlessly tapering down to a harmonious base, is bathed in a splendid symphony of brown and orange glazes. One of the jug’s most distinctive attributes is its tall, dignified narrow mouth, which arches skyward like a sentinel. This poised Silhouette is elegantly balanced by a pair of robust double handles, their curvature reminiscent of embracing arms, bestowing the jug with both a visual and tactile sense of warmth. Just below these embracing handles, a characterful front spout protrudes, whispering tales of bygone days when such jugs were essential vessels in French Provincial homes. The spout, with its own minute arch, adds a layer of functionality and charm. The bottom of the jug, with its gracefully tapering lines, lends a gentle lightness to the piece, ensuring that despite its sturdy character, it remains lithe and graceful. The jug’s patina has the caress of time, with natural weathering that adds to its provenance and authenticity.
