Knotted Jug

A natural terracotta jug with a round, full body and a single handle finished with a small clay knot at the join - a quiet handmade detail that rewards looking closely. A beautifully proportioned object or vase for a shelf, a table, or a windowsill. Made by artisan ceramicists in Crete from fired clay; the knotted join is worked entirely by hand.

This piece is unglazed earthenware - unsealed inside and intended for dried flowers, stems, or decorative use rather than water. As with all handmade ceramics, slight variations in form, texture, and surface are an inherent part of the process - no two pieces leave the kiln the same, and these marks of the maker's hand are what make each piece its own.
