Marcigny, a small town nestled in the hills of Southern Burgundy, has been home to Emile Henry for 150 years. Thanks to its rich clay the Burgundy region has remained a fertile area for potters, who pass their savoir-faire from generation to generation. Today, true to tradition, every piece of Emile Henry is made in Marcigny with rich, Burgundy clay. While respecting traditional techniques, Emile Henry products are 100% natural and boast technological advances (Ceradon ) that make it resistant to mechanical and thermal shock. The Oil Cruet from Emile Henry lets you dress up and coordinate your countertop. The easy flow spout provides a continuous, controllable stream of oil. Spout is removable, which allows you to fill the cruet with your choice of delicious cooking oils. The vibrant color coordinates nicely with other Emile Henry products or on its own. The piece combines form and function by protecting oils from damaging light, which prevents spoiling.
