Antique Marbled Confit Jar With Lid

€330.00
Sold

Antique handmade ceramic confit jar with original lid and a very unique iridescent marbling effect. These terracotta pots were originally used for preserving foods such as olives in olive oil, anchovies or sardines fresh from the Mediterranean sea. This one of a kind piece dating back to the late 1800s, with its beautiful maroon marbled glaze and flecks of pastel green, is particularly rare due to this unusual colouring and its intact lid. Today the antique pot would be ideal as a vessel for storage, used as a vase for fresh flowers, or simply as a decorative display piece.

Found in Ostuni

the enchanting hilltop town of the valle d’Itria known as ‘la città bianca’ (or white city).

Dimensions: H25cm x W15cm x D15cm

These are handmade antique ceramics that are perfectly imperfect and some have been used for generations, so please expect some cracks, and chips, and discolouration. These individual characteristics are part of the charm and unique quality of each piece. Please note, colour may vary from screen to screen.
