Southwest France Terracotta Confit Jar W/ Yellow Glaze Circa 1900 - 10¼"

This generous two-handled earthenware confit pot from southwest France dates to the late 19th or early 20th century. Its rounded form rises to a wide rolled rim, with a lustrous yellow glaze across the shoulder that drips softly onto the natural clay body below. Once used in farmhouse kitchens to store fats and food before refrigeration, it carries the practical grace of everyday craft. The surface shows gentle irregularities, scattered kiln speckling, a few small nicks and traces of old glaze runs, adding texture and enhancing its rustic charm.

Place it on a kitchen counter to hold wooden spoons, display it on a console with foraged branches, or use it as a sculptural accent on open shelving. The warm amber tone brings an easy glow to both contemporary and country rooms, adding depth and texture without overwhelming a space.
