Towards the end of the 19th century, a group of French avant-garde ceramicists determined that pottery should be regarded as an art form. This continued to define the mid-century modern movement, as the very nature of the craft speaks to the period’s renewed call for both form and function. During this time, designs were often made in studios, each of which would have several artisans at work. This ceramic jug features a blotted texture and contrasting interior. Please note, this item is a truly original vintage piece with slight imperfections and distinctive characteristics that add to its charm and celebrate its unique history.
