[QUOTE="kentworld, post: 2252066, member: 35"]Your translation of the French is very good. I think that “tâtonné” may mean more like over-worked or over-processed and the last bit more like “to make the grade.” I think it’s a lovely jug and it does have a bit of an Italian look to it, but the mark SIS found (she’s so good at deciphering these marks and finding them!) shows it’s French faience.
