A white ceramic pot adorned with a rich polychrome design depicting the two industrial sites of the Félix Potin brand: the La Villette factory and the Pantin warehouses. These industrial scenes, framed by gilded scrolls, surround the inscription "Fabrique de Confitures Félix Potin" (Félix Potin Jam Factory). The image highlights the industrial power of this famous Parisian grocery store, founded in the 19th century. The design is clear and attractively colored. The pot features a molded rim at the top, typical of containers designed for a lid or seal.
