Antique Rustic Unglazed Amphora

€180.00
Sold

An antique hand-thrown amphora with an elegantly elongated form that is perfectly balanced with a deceptively simple, primitive aesthetic. The thick unglazed clay was originally used by farmers to keep the wine or water fresh whilst working the land on those long, hot summer days. This utility drinking vessel features an earthy, raw surface texture and its characterful patina has developed from daily use. Testament to its good design, today it would make a unique display piece to compliment any home, from modern spaces to rustic, farmhouse styles.

Found in Ostuni

the charming hilltop town of the Valle d’Itria known as ‘la città bianca’ (or white city).

Dimensions: H49cm x W20cm x D19cm

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.
