VINTAGE FRENCH COPPER POT & PITCHER (HAND TOOLED) These two pieces of vintage French Farm Copper are from the area of Chateau neuf du Faou,Brittany,France. We were a military family based in Germany and enjoyed the French coast of Normandy and Brittany.We found many Farmer's Markets/Flea Markets selling old "farm copper",much of it hand tooled.Some pieces are "roughly" tooled,while others are either hammered or tooled by a skilled artisan's hand. I had purchased many pieces back in 1968 and have kept buying pieces and bringing them back to the states. I have sold many pieces on eBay over the past few years and all of my buyers have been very pleased.Each piece is unique unto itself. The pot I have listed is hand tooled solid copper with brass handles.You can see the tooled "brass seam" on the pot.The pot is 6.5" across and 3.5" tall,it hold about 1 1/2 quarts. It is in very good condition for being at least 80 years old. The pitcher is hand tooled copper,but thinner in thickness.Looking closely you can see the rustic tooling of the copper.The workmanship is good and very French!The pitcher stands 8.5" from base to spout.The base is 4.25" across.The pitcher has a minor dent,NOT damaging at all.....it rather gives the pitcher "it's true age look" and it too has the "brass seam". Both pieces are lovely collector's pieces.....
