7 ways to decorate with vintage ironstone and pottery
1. A large display of ceramics
A collection of French pottery always makes a big impact. Green and orange confit pots and pitchers are quintessentially French. Rustic cutting boards are the perfect match!
Open shelving is the perfect place to enjoy a collection of antique French confit pots.
Then there's the creamy whites of ironstone crocks and saloirs. They look wonderful displayed en masse in a dresser or open shelves in the kitchen, and can be used to display flowers and foliage for an instant farmhouse look.
2. Use antique French confit pots as vases and planters
Confit pots filled with fresh blooms become the focal point of a round table, while more are styled in a glazed cabinet behind. Their rich ochre tones and timeworn surfaces bring warmth and Provençal charm to any space.
As pottery can be porous, make sure you put fresh flowers in a watertight container inside to avoid leaving marks on your timber furniture.
A stunning display of hydrangeas contrasts the glaze of this 19th Century confit pot.
This charming corner is a celebration of French vintage pottery—warm confit pots and delicate creamware pitchers come together effortlessly. Whether grouped on a garden table or arranged on the floor, each piece brings texture and history to the space. Add fresh blooms for a soft, inviting touch.
An antique preserving pot makes a charming rustic vase for a colourful bunch of flowers or pot plant.
3. Display your kitchen utensils in a vintage pot
A collection of wooden spoons and kitchen utensils make both a beautiful and practical kitchen display.
4. Create a still life 'shelfie'
5. Display French provincial bowls on open shelving
A collection of pottery in the living room is also a lovely way to achieve a country feel and add earthy colour and texture. I love the fresh pink roses displayed in the enamel pitcher and antique confit pots.
6. Display larger stoneware pots on the floor in a collection
Larger pieces can be displayed in groups on the floor, making a sculptural statement.
