Know before you buy
While this piece is historically inspired by cider-making vessels, it is best suited as a decorative accent. Due to its 19th-century antique style and material composition, we recommend using it for display rather than daily beverage service.
The jug stands 14 inches tall and has a diameter of 7 inches at its widest point. Its tall, bold profile makes it an ideal statement piece for shelves or bar carts.
No, this specific model features a sleek, handle-free design that emphasizes its tall, cylindrical form and the contrast between the oak and brass materials.
To preserve the finish, dust the jug regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can damage the patina on the brass and the natural grain of the oak.
This piece is crafted in an authentic 19th-century antique style, reflecting the traditional cider-making heritage of Normandy. It is designed to offer the aesthetic and historical charm of an original period piece.
