Set of two vintage Grey-Poupon mustard pots in fine earthenware by Digoin & Sarreguemines, in large and medium sizes, with double-beaded rims. Their black printed decoration features the coat of arms of Dijon surmounted by a mural crown, surrounded by bunches of grapes, vine leaves, and banners recalling the house's awards and its founding in 1777. The words "Paris 1900", "Hors concours" and "Membre du jury" adorn the rims. On the back, the phrase "Exiger la capsule" accompanies an illustration of the capsule with a guilloché base bearing the words "Moutarde", "Dijon" and "Grey-Poupon", completed by "Made in France" and "Cachet déposé". The two bases bear the crowned mark of Digoin & Sarreguemines. A decorative set combining two sizes and two patinas, bearing witness to the old presentations of Dijon mustard.
