Countertop cache.
Set one of these covered jars on the countertop, and you just might think you’ve been whisked away to a rustic French kitchen. Each vessel makes a picture-perfect home for flour, sugar, coffee, tea, you name it, and can handle all your pickling tasks too (that’s what they were originally used for, after all). Now, about how these gems got here: Every piece was hand-shaped in France from grey clay—shoutout to the ridged lid and handles on the sides—then salt-glazed to create a classic sheen. We’ll take one of each size, please.
