Vintage French confit pot finished in a warm brown glaze, showing beautiful tonal variation and darkened marks from the firing process. Traditionally used to preserve duck or goose in rural French kitchens, this pot retains its original lid — a rare and highly desirable detail. Both the pot and lid are glazed inside and out, aside from the unglazed base and upper rim, a practical feature that kept the vessel from slipping during underground storage.
Its small, sculpted ear handles offer easy finger holds, adding both balance and charm. The number 3 is stamped at the base and inside the lid, likely referencing its original volume or batch size. The glaze is smooth with a naturally irregular character — a quiet testament to its handmade origins.
