THE ABBAYE DE LA CELLE IN THE NORTH OF PROVENCE WAS CLOSING FOR RENOVATIONS AND NEEDED TO SELL OBJECTS SHOWN IN THE ABBEY FOR GENERATIONS. PASSOIRES – ARE USED FOR RINSING VEGETABLES, FRUITS AND OTHER FOODS AND JUST TO DRAIN WATER. THE PASSOIRE IS USED FOR EXTRACT ACTUALLY, BOTH CAN JUST BE USED AS COLANDERS. IT WAS ALSO USED AS A COLANDER. EGOUTTOIR – YOU NEEDED TO DRAIN THE WATER IN THE FRENCH VERSION FOR MAKING PASTA , TO DRAIN WHITE BEANS THAT SAT IN WATER SO YOU COULD CONTINUE THE RECIPE ALSO USED AS A COLANDER. BOTH PIECES HAD TROUS holes… SOME PASSOIRE COULD BE FOUND WITHOUT LES PIEDS (FEET). THE EGOUTTOIR ALWAYS HAD THREE PIECES TO RAISE THE POTERIE BY AN INCH OR TWO. ONE WAS IN THE FRONT AND HE OTHER TWO WERE OPPOSITE EACH OTHER IN THE BACK. THE PASSOIRE WAS A UBIQUIQUOISE POTERIE IN MANY REGIONS IN FRANCE WITH THEIR OWN DESIGN IN EACH REGION. THE SAVOIE PASSOIRE IS VERY HARD TO FIND AND QUITE RARE. THE EGOUTTOIR WAS FOUND IN SAINTONGE AND NO OTHER REGION. IT IS A VERY, RARE , ATOMIC PART OF THE’PATRIMOINE’ OF FRANCE. AS TIME PASSED, SO DID THE EGOUTTOIR BUT… THE ORIGINAL IDEA OF 3 ADDITIONS TO RAISE THE PIECE AND MUCH MORE DETAILED ANSES (HANDLES) STAYED THE SAME. UNLESS IT IS A TOTAL MESS. ONLY ONE MORE FORM WAS MADE IN THE MID 90S WHICH DID NOT LAST LONG AS SAINTONGE DIMINISHED BY THE END OF THE 19TH C. AFTER ALL, IT WAS ALWAYS TO THE WEST ON THE COST. WHAT I LOVE ABOUT MY LATE 17TH C WAS AN ACCIDENT THAT NEEDED’GRAFFES’ TO REPAIR IT THESE WERE ANCIENT STAPLES MADE FOR POTERIE AND ARE CONSIDERED A PLUS. THE PIECE HERE , THE DEBUT OF THE 19TH C IS BASICALLY IN GREAT CONDITION EXCEPT FOR WEAR AROUND THE RIM THE GREEN IS INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL WITH VEINS OF CREME AND A GREEN OF A DIFFERENT SHADE RUNNING THROUGH THE EGOUTTOIR. ALL THREE FEET ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND THE HANDLES, ALTHOUGH NOT THE BIG VERSIONS OF THE 17-8TH CENTURY, ARE STILL DETAILED. YOU CAN USE IT , ABSOLUTELY, TO HOLD FRUIT, VEGETABLES, FALL – ACORNS.. WHATEVER YOU WANT ONE OF MINE IS THE CENTERPIECE OF MY SMALLER TABLE HOLDING DRIED LAVENDER THAT I PICKED NEAR LOURMARIN.
