Handle Confit Pot
France, 19th Century
$395
Once upon a time, in old and busy French kitchens, confit pots were essential for preserving rich foods like duck confit. Derived from the French verb confire, meaning "to preserve," these pots feature a half-glazed top and unglazed bottom, perfect for covering in fabric and burying in cool cellars or the ground. This particular confit pot comes with its original lid and handle, a rare feature that makes it even more special. These pots are becoming harder to find, and are often thought to be the king of all the antique French kitchen pots. Today, these charming pots are a welcomed addition to your kitchen window sills or playing the main characters on your dining, coffee, or entryway tables. Exactly as pictured.
