Vintage pewter measuring jugs

Vintage Pewter Measuring Jugs- French Simplicity in Two Sizes

 

Imagine an old pantry, its shelves lined with pewter softly glowing in candlelight. These two jugs – one marked DESILITRE, the other DEMI DESILITRE – may once have measured milk or cream in a modest kitchen where time moved slowly and every object held meaning. Their weighty forms and sturdy pedestal bases speak of function, but their proportions suggest quiet elegance. Today, they wait to be filled with wildflowers, old stories, or simple admiration.

A beautiful pair of vintage pewter pitchers with classic proportions and solid pedestal bases. These jugs were once used to measure liquids – the smaller is marked DEMI DESILITRE and the larger DESILITRE, both with embossed hallmarks just below the rim.

Pewter was the metal of the people – a humble alternative to silver, used daily and passed down through generations.

Perfect as display pieces, whether filled with flowers, styled in rustic decor, or placed on a historical kitchen shelf.

Both are in good vintage condition, with natural signs of age that add character and charm.


Both jugs are sold together as a single set.
