Burette à huile en grès émaillé crème à bouchon de liège

Key measurements for finding the right spot:

• Width from spout to handle: 14.5 cm
• Diameter: 8.5 cm
• Height: 19.5 cm
• Weight: 0.48 kg

Everything you need to know about materials:

• Material: Cream crackle-glazed stoneware, flecked with brown
• Cork stopper included, flat disc placed on the neck
• Short, angled spout, pointing upwards, fine thread
• Loop handle, wide and stable base
• Height 19.5 cm, 14.5 cm from spout to handle, 0.48 kg
• Hand wash, no harsh detergents

The silhouette is that of a very elongated, tall, and narrow truncated cone, more akin to an old laboratory object than a kitchen accessory. Left on the countertop between uses, it looks like a piece of ceramic rather than a utensil, which is exactly the goal.

What you need to know to install and maintain it:

• Empty and rinse with hot water between oils
• Cracks in the enamel retain oil, which turns rancid and darkens the network
• Do not leave the oil cruet full for weeks
• Hand wash, without aggressive detergent
