Vintage Yellow Glaze Amphora 1
A charming vintage amphora from the southern Italian region of Calabria. The hand crafted ceramic wine vessel features a glossy glaze in a soft sunflower yellow typical of glazes from the region (Italy’s ‘toe’). Originally made to store wine with the thick clay keeping the contents cool in the long summer months. This vintage piece of pottery dates back to the 1940s and has that magic patina brought about authentically by daily use and the passing of time. The hand-thrown ceramic amphora has a minimal rounded sculptural form which, coupled with the unique yellow hue, renders it quite ‘modern’ in aesthetic. What makes this piece extra special is the availability of a matching amphora, as seen in the images, with each spout turned in different directions. These unique finds are the perfect pair to create an impactful display and add a splash of colour to any space.
Found in Martina Franca
the hilltop town of the valle d’Itria known for its baroque architecture.
Dimensions: H32cm x W22cm x D18cm
These are handmade antique ceramics that are perfectly imperfect and some have been used for generations, so please expect some cracks, and chips, and discolouration. These individual characteristics are part of the charm and unique quality of each piece. Please note, colour may vary from screen to screen.
