During the mid 1800s, pottery flasks were made in the form of the root vegetables that the liquor was distilled from. Home distillers used potatoes, carrots, and turnips to brew strong liquors for personal use and for illegal sales. The hand made pottery flasks were filled, corked and distributed. They have become extremely hard to find as they were often discarded when emptied of their contents. This turnip flask has bright glazing – a green neck flows into a cream, pink, and orange ombre body. The flask lies sideways on three raised feet, and has the original cork stopper. Realistically molded and increasingly rare. 8.75 in. L x 3 in. W x 2.5 in. H In very good antique condition, showing the expected light surface wear and some aging to the cork.

Midcentury French ceramic vase in a stunning turquoise color. Handcrafted and beautifully glazed. This is a signed piece, however, we have not been able to identify the name of the ceramic artist. Made in the style of Accolay ceramics, Accolay was founded by four young artists: André Boutaud, Louis Dangon, Slavic Paley and Raude. As the story goes, the friends left Paris in order to escape forced labor under the German Occupation in 1944. They started with making ceramic buttons for their own use. ... In 1948 fashion was changing and they started making useful ceramics, decorative ornamental pieces, photo frames, fruit baskets and small ceramic sculptures. In 1952 a Canadian designer became a member of the group. This lovely decorative object will enhance any table, shelf or countertop. Perfect condition, no cracks or chips.
