French olive jars, especially Biot Provence jars, exemplify the rich tradition of southern French pottery. Their timeless design and functionality make them cherished for both historical and modern uses. The smooth ivory color adds elegance, making these handmade jars a beautiful addition to any collection or decor.

While Biot jars are famous, another notable pottery style from the south of France is the Anduze pot, named after the town of Anduze in the Cévennes region. Anduze pots were originally inspired by Italian Medici vases and became popular in French gardens and estates during the 17th century.

Whilst his pot has been handmade in Anduze it is more typical of the Biot style which typically features a rounded body with a wide mouth and a narrow base.
