Crafted from rustic stoneware, it has a naive provincial style, often found in French kitchenware. The piece includes a fitted lid with a notch for a mustard spoon, a popular design in table condiments of the mid-century period.
 
 
A simple painted base mark is visible, suggesting small-scale artisan or regional production rather than a large factory. The pottery has visible crazing and a vertical hairline crack, affecting its collectible value but still retaining display charm.
