My obsession with antique French pottery started out after I bought one of my favorite vintage books; The French Country Table: Pottery & Faience of Provence by Bernard Duplessy. I have a massive collection of vintage decor books that show these beautiful pottery pieces being used in everyday life which I love so much. Faisselle molds for making French cheese, walnut oil jugs for storing the walnut oil harvest, cruches for collecting spring water, colanders for washing produce from the garden, confit pots buried halfway in the ground for preserving duck confit, and tian bowls for washing up dishes in. If I had to pick out one of my antiques that I would never sell it would be my huge 400 year old French pottery walnut oil jar (not pictured)!
