These Handmade Glazed Classic Patina French clay pots have been made using the traditional rope throwing technique that is thought to date back to ancient times.

Each piece is entirely unique and finished in a classical patina glaze that blends harmoniously with interiors and exteriors. The pots feature a glazed top, evocative of the jars used to transport food and grains in the 15th Century.
