Another Languedoc year...

Bouillie bordelaise

We've been sorting out vintage and antique stuff we have around the house. Our plan is to take it in the car to the UK next week. We've an antique dealer in Brighton who'll buy from us, so today we've been taking photos for her so she knows what's coming.

I particularly love this watering can which has been used for donkeys' years to prepare bouillie bordelaise or bordeaux mixture for treating vines. The copper has coated the metal with this beautiful verdigris. I hope the dealer likes it.
