Antique XL Rustic Amphora

€240.00
Sold

A particularly unique XL amphora made in the early 1900s in Puglia, most likely originating from the town of Grottaglie - famed for its age-old ceramic craft. What makes this antique amphora a stand out piece, is the clay’s raw finish which has naturally and gradually evolved over time with oxidation into the luminous sky blue hue. Along with the elegant, elongated proportions of the handles and spherical body, this traditional piece has a lot of character. Its aged patina makes it a one-of-a-kind example of this type of ceramic. This rustic amphora was historically used to hold wine, water or oil, and today would make the perfect decorative centre piece in any home.

Found in Martina Franca

a charming hilltop town in the Valle d’Itria known for its baroque architecture.

Dimensions: H50cm x W30cm x D30cm

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.
