Authentic French Biot Jars & Olive Jar Planters
Discover Authentic French Biot Jars and Olive Jar Planters, Handmade French Pottery From Anduze in the South of France
Explore large glazed terracotta garden pots handcrafted by Le ChΓͺne Vert using traditional French pottery techniques. Each piece is hand-thrown and individually finished, creating natural variations in its glaze, colour, texture and aged patina.
These distinctive French garden pots can be displayed as sculptural features or used as statement planters in entrances, courtyards, terraces, pool areas and landscaped gardens.
Authentic French Biot Jars
French Biot jars are recognised by their generous rounded bodies, narrower necks and beautifully glazed upper collars. Inspired by traditional Mediterranean storage vessels, their sculptural proportions now make them highly sought-after feature pots for Australian gardens and interiors.
Our Biot pottery is handmade in Anduze in the South of France by Le ChΓͺne Vert. Unlike mass-produced French-style pots, each jar is hand-thrown and finished individually by skilled artisans. Subtle differences in colour, glaze, texture and artisan markings ensure that no two pieces are exactly alike.
French Olive Jar Planters
Our collection also includes tall French olive jar planters, offering a more slender silhouette while retaining the character and craftsmanship of traditional Anduze pottery. Their height makes them particularly effective for framing entrances, positioning beside pathways or creating a statement in courtyards and outdoor entertaining areas.
These decorative olive jars can be displayed unplanted as standalone garden features or styled with topiary, citrus, olive trees and other feature plants. Their handcrafted finishes complement French provincial, Mediterranean, formal and contemporary garden designs.
Large Glazed Terracotta Pots with an Aged French Patina
Traditional green, aged honey and layered blue glazes give these large terracotta garden pots a naturally weathered appearance. Although they have the character of antique French pottery, these are newly handmade pieces with authentic French provenance rather than mass-produced reproductions.
The deliberately antiqued surfaces pair beautifully with natural stone, timber, brick, rendered walls and established greenery. Each finish develops its own visual depth, allowing the pottery to feel at home in both traditional French country gardens and more contemporary Australian landscapes.
Handmade Anduze Pottery for Australian Gardens
A single jar can create a strong focal point, while a matching pair adds balance and structure to an entrance, terrace or poolside setting. Their substantial size also makes them ideal for landscape designers, architects and homeowners searching for distinctive statement garden pots with genuine European craftsmanship.
