THIS IS AN OLIVE OIL CRUCHE OF N. PROVENCE,DROME. ACTUALLY,THE NAME IS 'TRUCHET'. TRUCHET IS THE GENERIC TERM USED AS IS 'BUVETTE AND HUILIER' FOR SMALLER POTERIES USED FOR SERVING AT THE TABLE. THIS IS CLASSIC PROVENCAL WITH THE TWO (SOMETIMES THERE ARE 3) HANDLES THAT ARE TURNED AND ROUNDED AND THE VERY ROUND FORM. THERE WAS ALSO A LONG SPOUT SO AS NOT TO SPILL THE OIL.   THIS PIECE WAS MADE IN CLIOUSCLAT, (DROME), PROVENCE ONE OF MY FAVORITE ATELIERS FOR THEIR GLAZE COLORS. THIS IS THE COVETED CLEAR GREEN THAT IS TRANSLUCENT AND A ONE OF A KIND COLOR. THIS SIZE IS UNUSUAL AS TRUCHETS ARE USUALLY VERY BIG. 

THE HEIGHT    7.5.  LENGTH. 

 SHIPPING PRICES REFLECT THE CARE OF HAVING IT PACKED BY UPS AND ITS HEAVY WEIGHT WHICH IS CORRECT FOR A TRUE EARLY 19THC CONFIT POT.  NOT ONLY IS INSURANCE  INCLUDED BUT PROFESSIONAL PACKING DONE BY UPS . NEVER HAS ONE PIECE ARRIVED WITH A PROBLEM ! PENNY-WISE-DOLLAR-FOOLISH
