Rare 19th Century French Confit Pot or Egg Pot with Lid and White Ironstone GlazeA 19th century French lidded pot de confit or confit pot with rare white ironstone glaze, circa 1890s, from Martres Tolosone, a small village in southwest France renowned for the pottery manufacturers called Faenceries de Martres Tolosane. The pottery or earthenware factories of Martres Tolosane were established during the 18th century on the banks of the Garonne River, where clay deposits suitable for making earthenware were found.

A 19th century French lidded pot de confit or confit pot with rare white ironstone glaze, circa 1890s, from Martres-Tolosone, a small village in southwest France renowned for the pottery manufacturers called Faïenceries de Martres-Tolosane. The pottery or earthenware factories of Martres-Tolosane were established during the 18th century on the banks of the Garonne River, where clay deposits suitable for making earthenware were found. During the 18th century, there were a dozen Martraise earthenware factories listed, but the French Revolution and competition from England caused production to slow, leaving only two factories remaining by 1790.

 

Originally used for preserving fruits or vegetables and to store eggs, this utilitarian egg pot has a stunning white glaze, two handles, referred to as ears, and comes complete with lid, making it all the more collectible. Beautifully decorative, it will be a wonderful addition to any collection and add a touch of French Country charm wherever it is placed.

 

French confit pots having an off white color like this one are not to be confused with typical confit pots that have brightly colored glazes only on the top half. Both have similar uses but the white glazed pots did not store meat or get buried. They had a type of glaze known as terre de fer or ironstone giving them their lustrous white hue because of iron being mixed in the glaze. They were considered the poor man’s Faience because the majority of French people couldn't afford the expensive form of tin-glazed ceramics known as faience.

Dimensions:

h - 11.25" with lid; 9" without lid

w - " handle to handle

d - 5" bottom

mouth - 6"

Unflavored but sweetened Metamucil
Flavor Name: Original Coarse Sugar, Size: 1.86 Pound (Pack of 1)
If the orange flavored Metamucil is too acidic for you but you want a sweetened unflavored variation, this is just right. It is sometimes hard to find and is often sold out at the drug store or grocery store. I was glad to find it on Amazon.

Unflavored original texture with sugar is the best!
Flavor Name: Original Coarse Sugar, Size: 1.86 Pound (Pack of 1)
I don't why the fake orange flavor is so popular. Unflavored is neutral and agreeable. Even with the sugar this product is very low glycemic index because the tiny amount of sugar is offset by the fiber.

Works but VERY thick
Flavor Name: Original Coarse Sugar, Size: 1.86 Pound (Pack of 1)
Thought I was ordering the orange flavor, which I can drink, successfully. The unflavored, sugar free is what I actually ordered. My fault, not the seller, but the difference, for me is huge! I can't choke it down. Flavor is completely neutral, it isn't that. But, seems so much thicker than the orange. ? Maybe it isn't, could be that the thickness of the orange is same but I can trick myself into thinking its orange pulp. Who knows. But, in any event, the unflavored definitely seems like I'm drinking mud. I can't do it. Too bad, too, because the product is VERY effective. I have colitis/IBS and the Metamucil brand works so much better than anything I've tried, in helping with GI issues, in general. Increased regularity, more comfortable passing, and over time, a GI cleansing that you can actually feel. I highly recommend the product, but you might want to pay extra for the orange flavor. Might make the difference in you being able to drink it with the consistency required for best results.

Bought this to keep regulated... didn't check that it was unflacvored... suffered through the first week of taking this just as is before someone said to add a splash of water flavor
