About the Item

Bring a touch of rustic Breton charm to your collection with this delightful pair of Quimper faience jugs, crafted in Brittany, France, circa 1890. Each pitcher is hand-thrown and hand-painted, showcasing the lively folk traditions that define classic Quimper pottery. One jug features a Breton woman framed by scattered floral motifs and blue striping, while the companion jug displays a Breton man and child set against ornate cobalt-and-yellow scrolling panels. Both pieces present the distinctive scalloped spout and generous rounded body typical of 19th-century regional faience. The surfaces show gentle craquelure and warm glaze variation, enhancing the authenticity and antique character of the pair. These jugs make charming decorative accents for a shelf, table vignette, or French country kitchen display. Excellent condition commensurate with age and use. Dimensions (each approx.): H 7″ × W 5″ × D 7.5″.
