{"product_id":"provencal-pichon-uzes-ceramic-green-glazed-basket","title":"Antique French Pichon Uzès Compote | Olive Green | Openwork Pedestal Basket","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis antique Pichon Uzès compotier (pedestal basket) has a detail that is not seen very often. Instead of the usual smooth coils, the openwork lattice was built from ribbed extruded clay, giving the whole basket a twisted rope-like texture that completely changes the feel of it. In person, it has amazing depth and looks wonderful anywhere in the house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSigned Pichon Uzès and stamped fait main (handmade) underneath, likely mid to late 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe form is classic Pichon. Open lattice basket rising on a turned pedestal foot with a beaded collar underneath. The iconic little molded rosettes joining the weave together throughout are delicate and structural, which gives this pottery its appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe olive green glaze is exactly the color people associate with Provence and old Uzès pottery, warm and rich olvie green, without feeling heavy. The glaze has aged nicely too, with just enough light wear to remind you it has been displaying its beauty for quite some time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the kind of piece that immediately finds its place at the center of a table. Lemons, figs, walnuts, or completely empty so the weave can speak for itself. The twisted basket texture is really what makes this one stand apart though. A beautiful piece of Provençal pottery with just the right amount of personality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Provence Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52385446887767,"sku":"FAI-017","price":295.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/4686\/4215\/files\/provencal-pichon-uzes-ceramic-green-glazed-basket-1.jpg?v=1766177174","url":"https:\/\/theprovencecollection.com\/products\/provencal-pichon-uzes-ceramic-green-glazed-basket","provider":"The Provence Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
