Here is a charming oil jug crafted in the workshop of peasant potters in Brioude, Auvergne, France, in the 17th century. It is adorned with a crown-shaped motif around the summit opening, a detail envisioned by the peasant who shaped it with precision and, clearly, with love too.

Rare 17th-century peasant pottery in excellent condition. It hails from the pottery center of Brioude, Auvergne, France, proudly featuring a crown motif around its summit opening.

The sturdy structure of this Louis XIII armchair is softened by bead turnings that adorn the armrests, armrest supports, and base. The backrest and seat are upholstered in embossed leather known as "Cordovan," revealing lush patterns of birds, leaves, and fruits.

17th-century Louis XIII armed chair with Cordovan embossed leather seat and back adorned with polychrome motifs of flowers, fruits, and birds.

It comes from a noble house in the Southwest for which it was commissioned in the 17th century. Reserved for the master of the house, for a solitary or accompanied supper, this oval table with intimate proportions was placed near a large fireplace, in a private space resembling a bedroom. Note the thickness of the top made up of two wide walnut planks.
