Antique French Pewter Measuring Set – 8 Graduated Sizes

This rare set of 8 antique French pewter measures features a striking range of graduated sizes, each with a rectangular handle and cylindrical form. Stamped with fleurs-de-lis and inspection marks on their bases, these would have been used historically for dry or liquid goods in taverns, markets, or apothecaries. While not designed to nest, they display beautifully in a line or cluster and serve as a sculptural accent for any kitchen, bar, or bookshelf. The pewter’s deep patina and symbolic markings evoke 18th- to early 19th-century French civic life—bringing history to your home.
