Description
Hand-painted faïence from Alsace — a sunny Soufflenheim double pot brimming with French charm.
Bright, joyful, and unmistakably French, this vintage Soufflenheim faïence double pot comes from Alsace, the historic “village of potters” in eastern France. Hand-painted with traditional floral motifs in blue, green, and ochre on a warm yellow glaze, this charming piece embodies the region’s centuries-old ceramic heritage.
The twin lidded compartments may have originally served as a mustard or condiment set, though forms like this were also used for inks or salts—a perfect example of Alsatian craftsmanship blending form and function. The glaze bears subtle imperfections and brushstrokes that reveal the human hand behind it, the mark of true village pottery.
Whether styled in a kitchen, study, or tabletop vignette, this sunny piece radiates the joie de vivre of rural France.
