AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Two beautiful ceramic traditional Dutch polychrome tobacco pots with the inscriptions 'ST.OMER' and 'VARINAS' and a brass lid.
This type of earthenware is inspired by the classic 18th-century Delft shop vessels in which snuff and pipe tobacco were kept.
The pots are painted with the coat of arms of Amsterdam (the shield with three crosses flanked by lions), a VOC ship, and a figure (historically often referred to as an Indian or smoker with a pipe) next to a tobacco plant.
Origin of the type - Such pots were originally intended to store snuff or smoking tobacco (named after tobacco varieties or places such as St. Omer) and featured a classic baluster shape with a brass lid.
Nice eye-catcher as a tobacco storage pot, but of course it can also be used for other purposes.

Height with lid H approx 36 cm x approx 24.5 cm diameter
Total weight together approx 5 kg.
