Product description
Authentic and very rustic Calvados jug,
crafted in Normandy during the 1960s
by the famous Poterie Turgis in Noron-la-Poterie.
This handcrafted piece of Norman tradition is
made of raw chocolate brown salt-glazed stoneware.
It stands out with its rich relief decoration
applied to the bulging belly, representing an
apple branch laden with its fruits and leaves.
The front features a wide contrasting clay band
displaying the embossed inscription "CALVADOS".
The structure has its side carrying handle
and retains its original stopper cover,
molded into the mass. A superb piece of regional
folk art, ideal for perfecting a retro bar or
bringing an authentic local touch.
