TO TAKE  PHOTOS WITH THIS MOST BRILLIANT SHINE WITH ACCURATE RESULTS OF THIS PIECE IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE. IT IS MORE GORGEOUS THAN CAN BE IMAGINED AND THE FIRST PHOTO IS JUST ABOUT THE REAL DEAL. THE LAST PHOTO IS LOOKING INTO THE INTERIOR WHERE YOU CAN SEE THE MARBLED 'TERRE MELEE'. MERCI
THERE IS ONLY ONE AREA IN FRANCE WHERE THE CLAY IS SO RICH WITH THE MINERALS THAT MAKE MULTILES COLORS THAT NO GLAZE NEED BE APPLIED. THIS AREA IS APT ACROSS TO UZES. THE PICHON FAMILY IN THE AREA ARE FAMOUS AND IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE THAT THIS MID-19TH C TEAPOT WAS MADE BY THE FAMILY. THERE WERE VERY FEW POTERIE ATELIERS WHO TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THIS STUNNING AND NATURAL MADE BEAUTIFUL MARBLED COLORS. THE CHANGE IN THIS CONSISTENCY CHANGED EVERY FEW INCHES. A BRIGHT, SHINY GLOW TO A MILDER GLOW OF THE COLORS BUT ONE THING....YOU CAN'T FIND THESE PIECES ANY OLDER THAN THE MID-50S. WHY? THEY WERE EXPENSIVE TO ORDER AND THE LOCAL FOLK COULD RARELY ORDER A PIECE FOR THEIR HOME. THE MARBLE COLORS CONTINUED INTO THE INTERIOR THE BOTTOM AND AS THIS ONE HAD A SPOUT LIKE  REMOVABLE TOP...THAT INCLUDED.
