Poterie Digoin Stoneware Gobelet
£12.50

French stoneware tumblers originally produced exclusively by The Manufacture des Grès et Poteries for the containment of soft cheese, these are now produced in a 'Mat' glaze to perfectly match the Pinte Cidre as a rustic but quietly sophisticated drinking set. Hand made since 1875 by Poterie Digoin, in the northern Loire valley, 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. About 0.18 litre capacity, 7cm diameter at the top by 9cm high. One supplied.
