A Petite Piece of Pâtisserie History
This small antique French copper mould may have once held jellies, mousses, or aspics in a country kitchen—but today, it makes a delightful statement hung from a rail or tucked into a shelf. Its deeply fluted oval design catches the light beautifully, and the brass hanging loop is still sturdy enough for display.
A Mould with a Story
Dating from the late 1800s to early 1900s, this mould is made of solid copper with a hand-applied tin lining, as was traditional in French kitchens of the time. Its petite size suggests it was made for individual servings—possibly a sweet jelly made from orchard fruits, or a delicate cream set in a cool cellar.
The copper has aged gracefully, with warm patina and gentle signs of use that speak to a life well-lived.
