Unglazed Stamped Clay Pickling Pot

Charged with the humble task of pickling vegetables, this capacious earthenware jar is distinguished by its remarkable stamp pattern. Pressing a square stamp incised with a geometric pattern, the potter layered and staggered impressions to enliven the simply shaped vessel with visual rhythm and all-over texture. Smoke from the kiln contributes an ombre effect, transitioning gradually from charred brown to earthy terra cotta. Tucked alongside a hearth or filled with ferns in the garden, this large pickling pot is a wonderful addition to any space.
