Provençal Confit Pot

The Provençal Confit Pot is a one-of-one antique homeware piece from HJEM. A hand-thrown stoneware confit pot from rural Provence, its glaze softened by a century of kitchen use. Once used to preserve duck and goose; now a quiet piece of sculpture.

How should I care for it?

Wipe with a dry or barely-damp cloth, and re-wax once or twice a year to feed the timber. Elm loves being lived with; rings and marks become part of its story.
