This listing is part of the 'At Home with Patricia Wells' collection of epicurean objects and decorative antiques.
This superb antique 'maigre gras' white porcelain sauce boat features pretty silver trim with words on each side indicating where to pour the 'Maigre', lean sauce, and 'Gras', fat. It is from Chanteduc, the home of Patricia and Walter Wells in Provence. The design is ingenious - the fat in gravy and sauces separates, rising to the top, so you are able to choose whether you wish to indulge in the fattier sauce or not! A rare find, Patricia loves them and has collected three similar pieces over her lifetime.
