Nine pieces of poterie vernissée (lead glazed pottery), all hand thrown in red terracotta and dipped in that deep copper green glaze you see across old country pottery from rural France.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set includes two large mugs, two little cream pots, a tumbler, one footed coquetier (egg cup), and two small bowls. Likely late 19th to early 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glaze is what pulls you in here. Deep emerald green with darker pooling where the dip ran heavy and softer areas where the throwing rings still show underneath. A few chips along the rims reveal the warm clay body below, and some of the older glaze has developed that quiet iridescence that only comes with real age. Nothing feels overly polished. You can tell this set was actually lived with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet out together on a farmhouse table, the whole thing just works. Coffee in the mugs, a soft boiled egg, cream close by, bread and jam somewhere nearby. Finding single pieces like these is easy enough. Finding a complete old breakfast service that stayed together for more than a century is a different story.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Provence Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52402427691351,"sku":"TWE-006","price":565.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/4686\/4215\/files\/rustic-french-green-glazed-pottery-mugs-pitchers-country-kitchen-2.jpg?v=1766480446","url":"https:\/\/theprovencecollection.com\/products\/rustic-french-green-glazed-pottery-mugs-pitchers-country-kitchen","provider":"The Provence Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
