Antique Creme Glaze Rustic Vasetto
An antique confit pot with a luminous buttermilk glaze, two handles and an elegant form. This vasetto was made in the early 1900s and was originally used for preserving foods such as anchovies, sardines, figs or olives in olive oil. The antique pot originates from the Pugliese town of Grottaglie, well known for its age-old ceramic craft and tradition. This type of ivory ceramic is commonly called ‘robba bianca’ in southern Italy, and represents the finest kind of ‘ceramica rustica’, produced with a pewter glaze and is twice fired. It features that magical patina brought about authentically by the passing of time and years of daily use. Today, the antique vessel would be ideal as a vase for fresh or dried flowers. Create an impactful display with the matching ivory glazed ceramics as seen in the images.
Found in Ostuni
the charming hilltop town of the valle d’Itria known as the la città bianca (or ‘white city’).
Dimensions: H29cm x W20cm x D19cm
Available and on display at Casa Rosa Lecce
These are handmade antique ceramics that are perfectly imperfect and some have been used for generations, so please expect some cracks, and chips, and discolouration. These individual characteristics are part of the charm and unique quality of each piece. Please note, colour may vary from screen to screen.
