Kleurrijke tabakspot ‘ST. OMER’ met messingkleurig deksel - Tobacco box - Earthenware

Colorful tobacco jar ‘ST. OMER’ with a copper lid – presumably 1930s

A striking appearance with a vivid decor and a classical look. This squat earthenware tobacco jar combines a cream-colored base with bold accents in blue, yellow, green and brown. The tall, brass-colored lid with a decorative knob gives the whole piece an elegant silhouette.

Centered is a green inscription panel bearing the words ST. OMER, flanked by two men smoking pipes. Blue puffs of smoke drift through the decor, while a leaf ornament frames the text panel at the bottom. The depiction references the historical visual language of the tobacco trade.

The name Saint-Omer has long been associated with tobacco and appears on historic tobacco jars. This piece aligns with that tradition of decorative stock pots, which served both a practical function and a striking presentation.

The fine crackled glaze gives the jar extra depth and character. A atmospheric eye-catcher in a cabinet, on a sideboard, or within a collection of ceramics and antique smoking accessories.
