A pretty white earthenware pot decorated with a monochrome sepia-brown design depicting the iconic factories of the Félix Potin brand: the "Steam Factory at La Villette" and the "Warehouses at Pantin (Seine)." The design is framed by decorative motifs and topped with the inscription "Fine Jams." This industrial image perfectly embodies the commercial power of this company, founded in the 19th century. The pot has a molded rim designed to hold a lid, and its glaze displays a beautiful network of antique crackles.
