A great piece of French country primitive pottery, this simple village-made walnut oil jar is bursting with rustic charm and authentic character.
Hand-thrown and wood-fired, it features a beautiful dribble glaze in rich brown tones over the neck and handle, sitting atop an earthy Terracotta body with beautiful Orange and Pink Red blooms from its wood firing. The clay is full of natural inclusions, slumps, and gentle push marks from the potter’s hands as the piece was removed from the wheel. These handmade signs of life and use give it a raw, sculptural presence that is both humble and beautiful.
Originally a staple in every French farmhouse kitchen for storing walnut or olive oil, this piece brings the simple, quiet elegance of rural life into your home.
Perfect as a decorative statement on a console table, kitchen counter, open shelving, or mantelpiece. Also lovely used as a vase for dried or cut flowers.
