Vintage French faïence style apothecary / pharmacy jars.

The small one is 'cocaine' and the large one 'digitalis'

They remind me of the Delft pottery with the blue glaze on white porcelain.

These are very unusual in shape for apothecary jars - more like cookie jars. I think these would be perfect in the kitchen as storage jars with a twist :)

They are signed on the base 'fait main decor Rouen' they are hand painted - hand made in Rouen, Normandy.

In very good condition overall - there are some little dents and flea bites but these have happened during the process of making them rather than damage.

There are cork stoppers glued onto the underside of the lids to hold the lids in place. The large one is central and easy to take on and off, the smaller one has been glued badly and has to be put on in the right place and pushed down so the lid is flush with the rim and displays well. See the photos as part of the description.
