Virginal Medium Jar

Mimicking the shapes of the terracotta jars that have historically been used for preserving olives in oil, the Virginal Jar is made of terracotta with an antique-white, hand-applied glazing that is so thick and rich that it has a crackled surface. The fact that this piece is hand-thrown means the shapes will vary slightly, as will the finish, which will make each of these vessels unique. Anyone who spies them in an interior will be convinced they are timeless antiquities.
