  • ObjectCeramic Vessels
  • Period18th century
  • StyleFrench Country

  • ColourBrown
  • MotifsTwin loop handles, Vertical rouletted bands, Flared rim
  • SizeH 57 cm (22 in) x D 64 cm (25 in)

These vessels were typically hand-thrown from local regional clays, glazed with lead-based or earthy finishes to ensure water-resistance, and fired in traditional kilns.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age-related wear, irregular hand-thrown wall thickness, historic firing flaws, and characteristic surface patination acquired through decades of agricultural use.

This type of vessel functions effectively as a standalone sculptural centrepiece, a rustic floor planter, or a textural element to ground minimalist or contemporary spaces.

Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid harsh chemical detergents and moisture saturation, particularly if the ceramic body has microscopic hairline fractures or porous areas.

A ponne pot is a traditional heavy earthenware vessel originating from rural France, historically utilised in farmhouses for dairy production, such as skimming cream or storing provisions.
