Our Restoration Medium Water Pot is made in the traditional way by hand from terracotta. So each one is unique. This means that sizes may vary and any imperfections all add to its unique characteristics. This classic design originated to carry and store water in hot countries: the cooling terracotta was the perfect way to preserve every last drop. The elegant earthenware shape is delightful to the eye – it’s designed to be used indoors – and you can use it as a decorative item, or perhaps to hold some dried flowers, or some ostrich or peacock feathers or even as something practical to hold hiking sticks or an umbrella.
