Cylindrical Box

The cylindrical box originated in Burgundian kitchens, where it was once used to store condiments and homemade preparations. Reissues of utilitarian models preserved in the Manufacture's archives, these boxes perpetuate a regional tradition: preserving, marinating, protecting. They were already part of everyday life in rural pantries, where stoneware was valued for its robustness and natural impermeability.

Made of stoneware and fired at very high temperatures, they become completely vitrified: the material absorbs no odor, flavor, or moisture. Their opacity protects food from light, guaranteeing healthy and long-lasting preservation. They are reliable, hygienic containers made to last.

Multiple uses, from the pantry to the contemporary kitchen

Today, their simple, straight and stable shape, as well as their versatile capacities, allow them to meet a wide variety of uses.
Maceration in oil or vinegar (fruits, vegetables, herbs, zest), preparation of homemade condiments, preservation of spices, dried fruits, cereals or sugar, container for ice cubes, fresh herbs or zest.
Non-porous stoneware ensures perfect neutrality, with no transmission of taste or smell, even during long macerations.

Also a decorative object in the kitchen, as in all other rooms of the house.

Each cylindrical box is shaped, enameled and finished by hand in the workshops of the Manufacture.
This meticulous work, passed down from generation to generation, gives each piece its unique character while respecting the heritage forms from which they originate.

A utilitarian object transformed into a durable and decorative piece, the cylindrical box embodies the meeting of tradition and function. It fits equally well in a traditional or contemporary kitchen.
