Hand-Blown Green Glass Demijohn Bottle – 10L French Vintage
This stunning French green glass demijohn is a hand-blown beauty with generous proportions and rustic charm. Likely from mid-20th century Provence, it features an organic silhouette with subtle air bubbles, an applied lip, and a visible pontil scar on the base. These traits confirm its artisanal, mouth-blown origin. Once used for fermenting or storing wine or cider, this 10-liter vessel makes an exceptional decorative accent in a modern farmhouse, French country, or minimalist interior. It’s perfect as a sculptural standalone piece or filled with flowering branches or dried foliage. Embossed “10” on the base hints at its original capacity. Minor irregularities are present, consistent with the handmade process, but there are no chips or cracks.
