The French Anduze pottery dates back to the early 1700's and originated in the Cevennes region of France.
Inspiration in the Medici style.
According to legend, in 1610 at the fair of Beaucaire cévenol a potter finds inspiration after seeing pottery in the Medici style. On his return, captivated by the elegance of a Medici vase, he drew his inspiration from its general shape to create the first French Anduze Vase. The result turned out to be a harmonious combination of Italian exuberance and Cevenol austerity on a stocky bodied planter, embellished by garlands and "stamped" clay badges showing the potter's name; since then, the French Anduze planter has acquired its worldwide French gardens ornament reputation.
Originally designed to plant orange and lemon trees, these large, glazed planters were displayed in gardens and orange groves to ornate Southern aristocratic properties in the past; it is the case around the world today.
This pot measures 11” x 13” As with all French Anduze protect from frost.
