Poterie Digoin Large Serving Dish, 'Miel' Glaze

A simple, large serving dish, hand made by Poterie Digoin and finished in a rich, speckled honey coloured glaze. Produced in the northern Loire valley, an area rich in clay and silt mineral deposits, but as importantly at a major junction in the French canal network, whose distribution allowed the nascent Digoin pottery, established in 1875, to quickly establish itself at the heart of the French kitchen. 29cm diameter, height around 5cm.
