French 19th Century Double Handled Brown Glaze Pottery Jug with Rustic Character

A French rustic double-handled jug from the 19th century, possibly from Normandy. Once a versatile vessel on French farms, it held liquids like oil, vinegar, water, or cider, and its beautifully weathered appearance tells the story of its functional past. The jug features a circular body that gracefully tapers towards the base, combining sturdiness with aesthetic appeal. Its narrow mouth is complemented by a pair of handles, enhancing its historical charm and utility. Used both indoors on farm tables and outdoors in the fields, this jug was a staple of rural French life. Its worn look adds authenticity, making it a beautiful addition to any space while conveying a sense of rustic elegance.
