Its tall, gently rounded body rises to broad shoulders and a thick, slightly flared rim, giving the piece a simple, sturdy silhouette typical of utilitarian country pottery. The body is covered in a soft green glaze, while extensive areas of wear around the shoulders and neck reveal the warm terracotta beneath, creating a beautifully layered, timeworn surface. The original function is uncertain, although its proportions suggest it was made as an everyday kitchen storage vessel. The interior glaze is heavily worn, with further traces of age and use throughout. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e Much of its appeal today lies in the contrast between the fresh green glaze and the exposed terracotta, giving the jar a particularly rustic, almost painterly patina. It would make a beautiful large vase with plenty of country charm, although a watertight liner would be needed for fresh flowers or branches in water. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 11¾\" high x 8¾\" diameter    \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 30cm high x 22cm diameter  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54535889125714,"sku":"25729","price":545.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC06416_4ab69547-6fd7-4e53-833f-e147687ea829.jpg?v=1788765433","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/antique-southern-french-green-glazed-earthenware-jar-with-rustic-patina-113-4","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
