Originally used throughout rural India for storing grain and dry goods, this substantial clay vessel carries the unmistakable character of a life well lived. Hand-formed and richly textured, it features a thick rolled rim, subtle carved detailing beneath the neck, and a beautifully weathered surface layered with decades of use and age.

Its proportions are what make this piece so special. Nearly 18 inches tall and 16 inches wide, it has a remarkable presence in person—heavy, grounded, and architectural. The generous 8.5 inch opening makes it perfect as a planter, whether styled indoors with an olive tree or outdoors on a porch or garden terrace.
