FRENCH POTTERY - Gratin Dishes, Cassoulet and small Bowls

             

Our oven proof gratin dishes, cassoulet and small bowls have been made in the same family-run workshop in Southern France for over 140 years. Three generations of know-how has been handed down from father to son and their story and commitment to their family history has led them to be awarded the “Living Heritage Company” status, a label of recognition awarded to distinguished craftsmanship and expertise in their field.

The Pots are all thrown using clay surrounding the studio on potter’s wheels dating from 1830 and glazed using limited colours that are both natural and food safe, including iron oxide for yellow, manganese for the chestnut colour and copper for green. Firing still happens in the original wood-fired kiln.
