Antique 'Jatte de Creme'



Antique French pottery bowl. Dating back to the 1800's this pale yellow and natural pottery 'jatte de creme' cream bowl made my heart skip when I saw it nested with a slightly smaller one at a flea market in Benouville, France. 




 At over 200 years old, it is a fabulous treasure! Used commonly in French farm homes, to separate the cream from the milk, it is still in amazing condition --- and gorgeously charming!





Just the fact that it has survived in near perfect condition to be found 200 years later to sit gorgeously in a French farm kitchen or on a dining room console filled with fruit -- makes it truly amazing!

Just listed on Etsy...... take a look!  Click here ~ Sunday Brocantes ~ to see it!.

A pale yellow, sunny start, to a fabulous week!  Happy Monday mes amis!
