Infused with the rich history and rustic charm of Provence, this antique French olive jar is a beautiful testament to centuries-old craftsmanship. Handcrafted from terracotta in the 18th or 19th century, this jar was traditionally used for storing and curing olives, a staple of Mediterranean life.
Its classic bulbous form, tapered base, and wide rim are complemented by a naturally weathered patina, with traces of its original glazed interior or exterior (if applicable), adding to its authentic, timeworn appeal. Whether displayed indoors or outdoors, this olive jar serves as a sculptural statement piece, ideal for holding dried flowers, greenery, or standing elegantly on its own.
Perfect for French country, farmhouse, or Mediterranean-inspired spaces, this antique terracotta jar embodies the warmth and history of Provençal living.
A rare and highly collectible piece, this French olive jar is a must-have for lovers of antique pottery and European heritage décor.
