Small jam pot in blackcurrant grape slipware – Antique ceramic

Charming little antique majolica pot, shaped like a bunch of grapes/blackberries with a relief lid featuring foliage and a stem. A beautiful example of trompe-l'œil ceramics, typical of the late 19th/early 20th century, inspired by the plant world and rustic table art. Its deep shades of purple and green, along with its very realistic three-dimensional decoration, make it a piece that is both decorative and collectible. Originally used as a jam pot or small table pot, it will easily find its place today in a vintage kitchen, a curiosity shelf, or in a chic country/family home decor. Perfect also for lovers of French majolica, antique fruit-patterned tableware, or for a charming still life display. Condition: good condition. Material: majolica ceramic. Dimensions: 12cm high.
