Savoie, with its strong agricultural traditions and access to natural clay deposits, developed a distinctive ceramic style focused on practical domestic forms. During the 19th century, local workshops produced hand-moulded vessels for everyday use, often decorated with applied reliefs referencing fruit, foliage, and regional produce.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe pot is cylindrical in form, with a subtly flared rim and thick walls. The exterior is glazed in a deep olive green, highlighted by a central relief of an apple flanked by two heart-shaped leaves in tones of red, green, and blue. The interior and rim are finished in a contrasting pale yellow glaze. Small glaze irregularities and surface wear are present, consistent with its age and use. Originally used to store preserves or fruit confits, this piece is a characteristic example of Savoyard rural pottery. Its bold yet simple decoration and robust form reflect both the functionality and aesthetic sensibility of alpine domestic wares. \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.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 4¾\" high x 4¼\" diameter \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 12cm high x 11cm diameter\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51274904338770,"sku":"22262","price":445.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC03124_50fbb7f8-f69b-4c1e-b588-2a6e0eeaa70d.jpg?v=1754661652","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/late-19th-century-savoie-jam-pot-w-apple-decor-43-4","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
