{"product_id":"french-vintage-handmade-terracotta-cooking-pot-kitchen","title":"Antique French Toupin | Glazed Terracotta | 19th Century Cooking Pot","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis antique French toupin is the kind of old cooking pot that tells you exactly what kind of life it lived the second you pick it up. Hand thrown in the South of France during the 19th century, it was made for the hearth, for soups left to simmer slowly near the fire and sauces worked low over embers. The warm yellow glaze is pure Provence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shape is fantastic too. It has a rounded body, flared collar rim and a single side handle that sits far enough back to stay cooler while cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glaze wraps the rim, collar, and interior, while the lower terracotta body was left bare and has darkened naturally from years near the fire. One side carries deeper fire wear than the other, exactly the way these old pots aged in real kitchens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the kind of pottery that immediately grounds a space. Wooden spoons in it by the stove, dried lavender on a farmhouse table, or sitting beside copper and old cutting boards on open shelving. Nothing polished or precious about it. Just a really beautiful old Provençal cooking pot with all the right wear still intact.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Provence Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52394963960151,"sku":"CER-033","price":255.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/4686\/4215\/files\/french-vintage-handmade-terracotta-cooking-pot-kitchen-2.jpg?v=1766333019","url":"https:\/\/theprovencecollection.com\/products\/french-vintage-handmade-terracotta-cooking-pot-kitchen","provider":"The Provence Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
