Discover the charm of vintage French craftsmanship with the Poterie Renault French Salt Glaze Petite Stoneware Mug. Handcrafted in the Loire Valley, these rare treasures embody both beauty and function, making them perfect for your daily cup of tea or coffee. With their petite size and rustic salt glaze finish, these mugs bring a touch of the French countryside to your kitchen. Each mug, made from local grey clay, is a one-of-a-kind piece, ensuring it will become a beloved heirloom in your home.

For five generations, the Renault family lovingly crafted their exquisite stoneware from the rich, local clay of the Loire Valley. Though the pottery studio’s doors have now closed and the kilns that once burned so brightly are silent, their legacy lives on in these authentic, unused pieces. Each one tells the story of the French kitchen—a place of warmth, tradition, and togetherness. This limited collection of handmade vintage stoneware is a rare glimpse into that cherished heritage. Once these timeless treasures are gone, a piece of French history goes with them, never to be made again.


Key Features:
  • Poterie Renault: A Story of Artisanal Craftsmanship: Each piece of pottery was hand-turned and hand-finished using traditional techniques passed down through the centuries. 
  • Unique Salt Glaze Finish: The signature salt glaze, formed by adding sea salt to the kilns at the peak of the firing process, results in a durable, non-porous finish with natural variations in color and texture. This ancient technique also provides excellent insulation, keeping your beverages warm for longer.
  • Authentic, Unused Vintage Stock: When the Renault family closed up shop years ago, they left the remaining inventory sleeping in the storehouse behind the family chateau. This limited supply of rare treasures is what we are now able to offer to our amazing community. It is the last of its kind—once it's gone, these timeless relics of French heritage will be gone forever.

Elevate your daily ritual with the Poterie Renault Petite Stoneware Mug, a rare piece of French history that brings both function and timeless beauty into your home. Cherish this collectible piece as it becomes a part of your kitchen’s story for generations to come.
