I ONLY HAVE PIEES WRAPPED AT UPS WHICH COST A SCOOCH MORE. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THE PRACTICAL INFORMATION OF THE PIECE AND NOT THE HISTORY… PLEASE SKIP FIRST PARAGRAPH AND SKIP T0 THE SEND PARAGRAPH. CAKES OF ALL TRADITIONAL OF REGIONS DE FRANCE OCCIDENTAL. EASTERN FRANCE THE MOLDS OF ALSACE, BELFORT AND JURA ARE SOME OF THE ICONIC POTERIES OF THE NORTH OF FRANCE. I HAVE THE THREE RAREST DESIGNS OF THIS GENRE. AS A FACT, IN THE BOOK’CULINAIRE DE LA CUISSON : TERRE VERNISSÉE D’ALSACE. THESE THREE MOLDS OF THE 18THC WERE USED AS EXAMPLES OF THE 18THC MOLD USED FOR SPECIFIC HOLIDAYS AND SPECIFIC CELEBRATIONS. THE ONE EXCEPTION WAS THE KUGGELHOPF BUNDT CAKE MOLD WHICH WAS USED FOR MAKING GATEAU MOUSSE DE CHOCOLAT AND OTHER SIMILAR SWEET BUNDT CAKES AND SUCH. THROUGHOUT THE YEAR THE OTHER TWO MOLDS WERE USED FOR HOLIDAYS. EASTER HAD SPRING FLOWERS OF THE REGION AND THE FORM OF A HEART WAS USED FOR MARRIAGES. IF YOU LOOK AT THE WORK IT TOOK TO WORK BY HAND TO CREATE THIS DESIGNS SO THEY WOULD DESIGN THE SPECIAL CAKES, PUDDING CAKES, BUNDT CAKES AND EVEN FOR CHOCOLATE MOLDS. THESE ARE TRULY AMAZING IN THEIR DESIGN AND THE USE OF THE POTERIE ANCIENNE. THIS ONE HERE IS THE RAREST OF ALL THE MOLDS CREATED FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS. IT IS THE MOLD TO CELEBRATE PAQUES (EASTER) AND THERE IS ON BIG DESIGN OF A LOCAL FLOWER (I HAVE YET TO IDENTIFY THE EXACT FLOWER BUT THEN SO DO MOST EXPERTS) AMAZINGLY… YOU CAN STILL USE THESE DAY AS LONG AS TRACES OF LEAD ARE STILL NOT MIXED IN WITH THE GLAZE. IF NOT, GO AHEAD….. MAKE A GATEAU GRENACHE FOR A MARRIAGE FROM AN 18TH C MOLD. AS YOUR COLLECTION GROWS AND HANG IN YOUR KITCHEN, THEY WILL BE THE TALK OF TOWN… AND OF THE LOCAL BITTER BAKERY AS WELL! IT SITS AT 11 INCHES ACROSS AND 3 INCHES AS IT SITS ON A 3 INCH TRIPODE. THIS WAS TO PROTECT THE SURFACE FROM THE HEAT OF THE MOLD. THIS MOLD HAS AN OCTAGON SHAPE OF A STAR WITH THE FLOWER IN THE CENTER. FOR THE CELEBRATION OF SPRING. LET’S HOPE NEXT SPRING WE WILL BE MASKLESS, MAKING CAKES AND PLANNING THAT VACATION TO… 11 INCHES ACROSS AND SITTING ON A 3 INCH TRIPOD. THIS IS OH SO HEAVY AND SO OLD….
