Biot Jars were originally used in Provence as storage jars, typically for flour, olives or oil. Their distinctive tear-drop shape has stood the test of time and the Biot Jar is now highly sought after as a decorative item. With their antique patina and with rustic glaze around the collar, Biot Jars are ideal for an entranceway or hallway, orangery, conservatory or garden room - as a planter or unplanted.

Standing in the foothills of the Cevennes, within the historic Languedoc region of France, the village of Anduze has been renowned for its pottery since the 17^th century. It is from Anduze that ORNAMENTI has sourced a collection of artisan-made Biot Jars and other pottery designs. Biot Jars with a glaze are not designed for the extremes of the British climate and should be considered for interior use only, unless positioned in a garden during the summer months only.
