Antique French Crazed Ironstone 2-Sided Bocquet Moutarde Normande- Yvette, France c. 1900. A glazed stoneware “pot à moutarde” (mustard pot), used for retail sale of prepared mustard. These jars were meant to be reused in the kitchen after the mustard was gone. Bocquet was a long-established mustard maker in Yvetot (Seine-Inférieure, now Seine-Maritime), Normandy.
The impressed/printed mark on the bottom reads “Digoin Sarreguemines.” This was one of France’s major industrial stoneware producers. They supplied blank jars to food companies like Bocquet, who added their own branding
APPROXIMATE MEASUREMENTS: 5″ TALL X 2 ¾” DIAMETER AT BASE
This pot is in good overall condition with some burial coloring and streaks, strong transfers on front and back, and no chips or cracks. This is a beautiful pot for anyone’s collection!
This is an authentic antique advertising pot sourced during my recent buying trip to England. I have been sourcing these wonderful antique pots for over 12 years from sources who are actually digging them up in ancient rubbish sites all over England. I purchased my first antique Advertising pot when my husband and I had the wonderful opportunity to live in England in the 1980’s. Our daughter was born there and we enjoyed living in England so much we often went back to visit after returning to the US.
Interestingly, this same daughter’s husbands job moved them to London were we have enjoyed visiting our grandchildren and traveling the countryside antiquing.
On our many visits we have became friends with many of the “diggers” excavating the ancient dumpsites all over the UK and now source thousands of pots from them every year. I still love the charm they add to every room they are placed in.
Returns are not excepted on these rare authentic pieces but please contact if you have any questions
