Savoie workshops in the 19th century commonly produced thick-walled, glazed earthenware vessels for use in the kitchen and pantry. These jars often featured applied decoration in relief, depicting fruit and foliage inspired by local harvests.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThis example is decorated with a pair of deep red cherries and a single large leaf in relief, all applied to a cylindrical olive-green glazed body. The interior and rim are finished in a soft yellow glaze. The slightly flared rim and tapering profile lend the piece a gentle, utilitarian form. Wear to the glaze around the rim and base is visible, consistent with age and long use. Originally used for preserving fruit or confit, the pot is typical of its region in both shape and decoration. It remains a fine example of rustic Alpine ceramic work, valued for its honest materials and connection to seasonal domestic life. \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":51274904142162,"sku":"22264","price":444.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC03141_95a92320-f741-4833-bda8-ce4d17b7aefb.jpg?v=1754661645","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/late-19th-century-savoie-jam-pot-w-cherries-decor-43-4","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
