Petit Confit Pots

France, 19th Century

Select Position

$275

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 petite 19th-century pots feature a half-glazed top and unglazed bottom, designed for storage in cool cellars or buried beneath the ground. The mini versions are the rarest and most collectible of all, each showing distinct glaze variations and signs of age. Sold individually as pictured, left, middle, or right, exactly as pictured.
