In 1847, Stanislas Renault chose to build his company in the Loire Valley as it is home to some of the finest clay in France. Renault employed a unique salt-glazing technique; throwing salt into the kiln at peak temperature to achieve a glassy, textured finish that made for high-quality, durable, and beautiful pieces. The salt-glazing technique combined with the local clay made Poterie Renault the go-to supplier for cafes, restaurants, and hotels across France at the time.
Five generations later, the company has ceased production but its pieces remain iconic, owing to their durability and their unchanged design - classic French silhouettes dating back to the 1600s. Rendered in earthy hues, they’re sturdy ceramics with delicate, handmade details. These piece are the kind of cookware that doubles as serveware because they are that charming. With a bit of a cult status among vintage kitchenware collectors, these pieces are unique, and limited in supply.
