Antique Yellow Glazed Confit Pot - Rare Ultra Small

The classic French confit pot, typically found in the South West of France, dates from the late 18th and 19th century. It was used for preserving food.

The top half has a yellow glaze and a beautiful patina. The bottom half is unglazed. This is typical of the confit pot of this era, as they were buried in the ground to keep the food cool.

It is hard to find confit pots of this size, as they are normally larger. Pots of this size were probably used for valuable foods like honey or spices.

This is a very old and well used item with many decades of use. As such, it has age-related marks, scratches and scrapes which enhance its rustic appeal. It has not been tested for water-tightness, and is sold as a decorative object.
