The cylindrical body carries opposing lug handles as well as a twisted loop handle on the domed lid, and a hand-incised zig-zag band encircles the wall. The glaze is richly variegated with natural drips and pooling.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eCastelnaudary, in the Languedoc, is celebrated for robust\u003cem\u003e terre cuite vernissée\u003c\/em\u003e devised for hearth and oven cookery, closely tied to the region’s emblematic cassoulet dish. This cocotte brings authentic French country character to a kitchen shelf, where its saturated green pairs beautifully with copper \u003cem\u003ebatterie de cuisine\u003c\/em\u003e and white faïence. It makes a sculptural centerpiece on a farmhouse table, useful as a lidded catchall or for storing onions and garlic. Equally at home on a console or dresser, it introduces a warm, timeworn note to rustic, provincial, or contemporary interiors. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition and wear consistent with age and use, not some chips and losses as per photos. \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 13½\" high x 15\" wide x 15\" deep \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 34cm high x 38cm wide x 38cm deep\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53961378955602,"sku":"24962","price":2650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC09143_aec40fd6-52e3-4449-8482-7427a10963eb.jpg?v=1783596271","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/large-and-rare-late-19th-century-castelnaudary-green-glazed-lidded-cocotte","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
