Sicilian Preserving Pot

Italy, 19th Century

$195

Antique Hard To Find One-Of-A-Kind

A true Sicilian workhorse in clay form. These 19th-century preserving pots once held sardines and anchovies along the Mediterranean coast, their glazed interiors designed to keep brine and oil cool in the heat. Sylvie likes them for wooden spoons, dried herbs, or freshly foraged flowers.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.

Notes from Sylvie:

Dear collector, this piece may have minor glaze chips, drips, and cracks, each a charming mark of its age.
