The Poulette from Les Céramiques de Lussan by Heidi Callard

This is the gift for your most discerning fancy farmer, or just for you for a special showpiece. 

The Poulette from Les Céramiques de Lussan is a small, sculptural ceramic chicken with a simple, graphic expression — at home on a shelf, a sideboard, a windowsill or in the kitchen. Each little bird is handmade, and the characteristic glaze with mouchetage gives a vibrant, lively finish that makes every Poulette distinct. Les Céramiques de Lussan was founded in 1974 by ceramist Heidi Caillard, and the chicken has since become one of the workshop's most iconic motifs. As all pieces are handmade, product photos are indicative — both colours and mouchetage pattern may vary slightly from bird to bird. -- Les Céramiques de Lussan is French ceramics in its most authentic form — wheel-thrown and hand-glazed in the small village of Lussan, Southern France. Each piece is made with respect for traditional techniques and natural materials, giving the ceramics a warm, timeless character with the subtle variations that make every item one of a kind. Designed for everyday use — and made to be appreciated for years to come.
