These three water jugs come from the pottery center of Beauronne – Douzillac, which is easily recognized by the nature of the clay used: a white clay, loaded with kaolin. Most of the production of this renowned center has a green glaze, like the pottery in the background [PA035], hence the originality of the brown glaze which coats one of them [PA034] .
Note also the peculiarity and rarity of the one, in the foreground, which features a handle on the top, called a stirrup, to which is added a dorsal handle [PA033].
