Large Anduze Pot with Green Glaze by La Madeleine, Circa 1950

A monumental antique French Anduze pot, standing 27 inches high with a 21-inch diameter. Originating from the Anduze region of Southern France, these iconic planters have been crafted since the 17th century and are celebrated for their distinctive baluster form, heraldic medallions, and draped garland motifs.

This example features a richly variegated green glaze, softened by age and weathering, which enhances its depth of color and historic character. The impressed medallion reads La Madeleine Anduze Gard, signifying one of the most renowned workshops of the region.

Perfect as a standalone statement planter indoors or outdoors on a terrace or in a garden, these vessels were historically used to showcase orange and lemon trees in the formal courtyards of Provence. Their timeless design and patina make them highly sought after by collectors and designers alike.
