French salt glazed confit pot
French Salt-Glazed Stoneware Confit Pot (Keulse Pot)
A handsome French salt-glazed stoneware confit pot, also known as a Keulse pot — once an essential vessel of everyday rural life, now cherished for its rustic charm. This example is particularly clean, with the softly dappled surface and earthy tones that salt glazing creates, giving it both strength and character.
Measuring 24 cm high, with a top diameter of 18.5 cm and base diameter of 13 cm, it is a practical size for styling. Once used for preserving food, it now lends itself beautifully to a rustic kitchen, country interior, or garden room. Perfect for displaying utensils, dried flowers, or simply as a sculptural accent in its own right.
A timeless piece of French provincial pottery — where simplicity meets style.
