Its rounded body tapers toward a narrow base, with a short neck, pinched pouring spout and a single curved handle. Particularly appealing is its rich, timeworn patina, with patches of old olive-green glaze contrasting against the exposed terracotta, which has darkened over time to deep, earthy reddish-brown tones. This beautiful interplay of colors and textures gives the little jug a remarkable depth and warmth. The base has been broken or pierced at some point, so the jug can no longer hold water. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWith its compact proportions, unpretentious country character and richly weathered surface, it would make a lovely addition to a collection of rustic French pottery, displayed on an open kitchen shelf or an old farmhouse table. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 7\" high x 6\" diameter    \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 18cm high x 15cm diameter  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55412337541458,"sku":"26250","price":647.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC02303_f2347fa2-ae28-4988-8f0f-6931109f281b.jpg?v=1794391018","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/small-18th-century-french-perigord-water-jug-w-beautiful-rustic-patina-7","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
