Vintage French Single-Handle Confit Pot

Vintage French earthenware confit pot sourced in France, dating to the mid-20th century. Formed in a classic Southwest silhouette with a rounded body and single applied handle, finished in a warm russet glaze that transitions to a natural unglazed base.

The shoulder is inscribed “1LB,” likely indicating a traditional capacity measure. The iron-toned glaze and darker rim band reflect the enduring utilitarian pottery traditions of French provincial kitchens.

Originally used for preserving meats beneath a layer of fat, confit pots were designed for durability and everyday function. Today, the form remains a timeless decorative vessel for kitchen styling or open shelving.

Sourced from France.

Measurements: 7.25" height × 6.25" width × 5.25" top diameter
