su-1448

A beautifully preserved pair of 19th-century Pithari jars, masterfully hand-thrown and traditionally fired in the Mediterranean. These large-scale vessels embody the enduring heritage of Greek amphora forms, distinguished by their sculptural silhouettes, ring-decorated bodies, and three ear-style handles—design elements rooted in pottery traditions dating back thousands of years.

The soft white-washed finish enhances their organic texture, while the naturally weathered surface reveals a rich patina developed over generations. Originally used for olive and grain storage, these monumental earthenware jars now serve as striking decorative accents, equally compelling indoors or in the garden.
