Vintage Marbled Confit Pot
A vintage ceramic confit pot from Puglia, in a unique marbled glaze set against a buttermilk base. The pastel-hued marbling effect in pistachio green, sky blue and ochre brown makes this pot one of a kind. This style of surface decoration is particular to Grottaglie, and is characteristic of the cylindrical confit pots found in the area. Originally the hand thrown pot was used for preserving foods in olive oil, today it would be ideal as a vase for fresh flowers or utilised as a storage vessel.
Found in Ostuni
the charming hilltop town of the valle d’Itria known as la città bianca (or ‘white city’).
Dimensions: H22.5cm x W17cm x D17cm
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.
