Originally designed for serving pâté, these iconic figural dishes have since become cult favorites among collectors of French ceramics.

Today, they’re just as fabulous holding olives, nuts, bonbons, Maldon salt, or even acting as chic catchalls for jewelry and keys. Styled on a bar cart, kitchen shelf, or dining table, they add instant personality with a wink of French countryside charm.
Each is stamped on the underside and beautifully modeled, blending rustic character with playful, timeless design.
