French pottery studio Poterie Renault produced gorgeous salt-glazed pottery from 1847 to 2016, when the family-run maker closed shop.
Now, what’s left of the collection is hard to find. Luckily, our buyers found a limited selection of a few more pieces from France.
Though the region is best known for wine production, the Loire Valley of France also once contained a secret gem frozen in time: Poterie Renault. Dating back to 1847, the French pottery workshop was filled with stoneware handcrafted from some of the richest and finest clay France has to offer. And while the factory shuttered its doors in 2016, it left behind a treasure trove of salt-glazed ceramics that have become collectible items. Today, very few shops carry what’s left of the stunning pieces—we were lucky enough to get our hands on another limited assortment of rare finds, including some styles we didn't carry last year.
At its height, potters at the factory would craft between 80 to 120 pieces a day, firing them in a blazing 1200 degree kiln with an unexpected additional component: salt. The old technique, known as salt-glazing, rendered pieces with an iconic glassy finish that set them apart. From traditional capucine bowls and escargot plates to gorgeous wine jugs and bakers in multiple shapes and sizes, each unique piece will find a home in your kitchen. Shop this limited collection while you have the chance; once these pieces are gone, they’re gone forever.
