Bring the warm, radiant glow of a Southern French summer into your home with this 19th century Languedoc Olive Jar. A commanding sculptural piece that anchors a room with its deep mustard glaze and honest, storied character.
This isn’t just a pottery jar; it’s a piece of grounded history. The dark mustard glaze has an exceptional, honeyed shine that shifts as the light changes throughout the day. As part of our "Working Stiff" collection, it carries an honest patina from a century of use in a provincial kitchen, including period repaired cracks and time worn chips that only add to its rugged, authentic beauty. It looks especially striking when paired with weathered wood and natural textures
