<p class="p1"><meta charset="utf-8"><span data-sheets-root="1">Our Astier de Villatte Hercule Pitcher will add a touch of elegance to any coffee or tea service. Inspired by 19th-century pottery designs, this miniature jug comes to us from Astier’s historic Paris workshop, where it was crafted using black terracotta clay from the Paris Basin and a handcarved plaster mold — a slow-paced, traditional process straight from the Middle Ages that gives each piece its own unique charm. The finished product feathers a classic silhouette, a graceful curving handle, an intricate appliqué pattern for a bit of texture and the brand’s signature milky white glaze, which lets hints of that natural clay color peek through for a perfectly imperfect feel. Great as a creamer on the breakfast table or for drizzling sauces or gravy at the dinner table, we also love Hercule as an effortless vase for a soft, blousy nosegay bouqette. </span></p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p class="p1">•black terracotta clay <br>•white glaze <br>•astier de villatte<br>•handmade in paris <br>•each is unique</p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p class="p1">Dimensions:</p> <p class="p1"><meta charset="utf-8"><span data-sheets-root="1">•approximately 3.75"W x 2.75"D x 4.25"H</span></p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p class="p1"><meta charset="utf-8"><span data-sheets-root="1">Care:<br>•hand wash only <br>•not microwave safe</span></p>
