Glazed grey stoneware crocks of this form were the standard commercial vessel for prepared mustard across northern France in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, sold by the kilogram to households and bistros alike. The jar retains its original paper label -- a graphic orange and navy design reading \"Moutarde Jaune Superfine Bocquet, au Vinaigre et au Vin, Yvetot (S.-M.)\" -- making it a rare survivor as an intact piece of French kitchenalia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is thrown stoneware, finished in a smooth grey salt glaze that shows a warm sheen under light. The form is classic and well balanced: a broad cylindrical body narrowing cleanly into a short collar neck with a rolled rim, easy to grip and built to last. Impressed directly into the clay just above the foot ring is an oval mark reading \"Moutarde Bocquet Yvetot\" alongside a molded \"1 L\" capacity designation -- legible manufacturer markings that anchor the piece firmly to its Norman origin. On the base, traces of aged black and red paint marks are visible, characteristic of old stock or storage markings from a shop or cellar. At home today it works equally well holding kitchen utensils, dried botanicals or simply standing on a shelf as a piece of French country graphic charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age. The original paper label shows expected toning and slight lifting at edges; light surface wear to the glaze and base in keeping with honest use over many decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApprox. 4.1 in wide x 7.3 in high (10.5 x 18.5 cm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e95% of my items are tariff-free to the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-shopify --\u003e","brand":"Fleamarketfrance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59088058450264,"sku":"FMF-QPPN3RFT","price":202.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/5776\/2392\/files\/ea21a67c9965aa836fcbffab6c261803.jpg?v=1794318130","url":"https:\/\/fleamarketfrance.com\/products\/french-stoneware-mustard-jar-bocquet-yvetot-10112611","provider":"Fleamarketfrance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
