Large Ceramic Two-Handled Jug
£40.00
This handmade historical reproduction is inspired by the shape of ‘stirrup’ pots of the ancient Mycenaean culture; it would make an unusual addition to your ceramics collection, an impressive talking point and decorative feature in your home. It is hollow throughout, with stirrup-shaped handles connected to the neck of the pot, with a narrow spout at the front.
The Mycenaean culture flourished in Bronze Age Greece from around 1600 to 1100BC and produced a wealth of distinctive ceramic pots, jars and vessels, originally used to store olive oil and wine.
I have created this pot using coarse ‘crank’ clay and have accentuated the tactile surface with bands of smoother clay. The inside of the pot is glazed in a rich red-brown, shiny glaze.
The pot measures 22cm tall and 19cm at its widest point.
