From Saint-Uze, the village in the Drôme that has been making pottery since the 16th century, this milk pitcher carries the cobalt flowers the place became famous for. Jugs like this poured the milk at a French table, cream earthenware printed with the floral pattern known as the Bleus de Saint-Uze, hand-finished onto each piece in the late 19th century. The spray of blossom on the body and the swag of flowers around the neck are the village's signature, the same blue on cream that turns up in farmhouse kitchens across France. Sylvie fills it with a long handful of garden roses, or keeps it by the stove for the morning milk.
