Poterie Renault
France
Poterie Renault got its start way back in 1847, when Stanislas Renault first opened his workshop in Argent-sur-Sauldre, France. Five generations and 173 years later, the family was still handcrafting their iconic stoneware from local grey clay. They’ve since had to close up shop—but we’re sure glad we have their timeless salt-glazed pieces to remember them by.

Not Vintage
I do not think the pitcher I received was worth of the "Vintage" classification. I was expecting something handmade and old. I would think one might better classify this pitcher. I feel mislead and do not see the $65 price tag as a fair reflection on the quality of this "not so vintage" piece.
