Antique Rustic Glaze Terracotta Jug
An antique terracotta jug with a refined form and extraordinary surface that has eroded with age to obtain that magic patina that only occurs with use over time. This unique, well-loved patina features glimpses of its original splendour - the green drip glaze against a buttermilk base - made all the more charming through its erosion and evolution from years of use, serving a family at meal times. Wine and water jugs from Puglia usually have the most extensive decorations and this one dates back to the late 1800s. This hand thrown piece with its distinctive pattern and elegant form would be ideal as a vase for fresh flowers or as a decorative display piece.
Found in Lecce
the baroque jewel and capital of the Salento.
Dimensions: H24cm x W21cm x D18cm
These are handmade antique ceramics that are perfectly imperfect and some have been used for generations, so please expect some cracks, and chips, and discolouration. These individual characteristics are part of the charm and unique quality of each piece. Please note, colour may vary from screen to screen.
