Poterie Digoin Main a Sel, Blanc

A small stoneware salt pot for the storing of salt within easy reach, either table or stove, ready to pinch. Hand made in the northern Loire valley by Poterie Digoin, founded in 1875 in an area rich in clay and silt mineral deposits, but as importantly at a major junction in the French canal network, whose distribution allowed the nascent pottery to quickly establish itself at the heart of the French kitchen. Finished in a white glaze, 0.2 litre capacity.
