Antique french specimens pot Dijon

A unique and highly charming antique French condiment jar (for mustard or jam) in the form of an elegantly dressed pig (a "dandy") sitting on a chair. This rare, polychrome ceramic collector’s item dates back to the early 20th century and is often attributed to the renowned French maker Mouillard Père & Fils from Dijon. The pig is beautifully and intricately painted, wearing a blue jacket and a pink bow tie, and holding a signature red umbrella. The jar comes complete with its original, matching spoon! An absolute eye-catcher for any collector or as a unique decorative piece for the kitchen.
