LUCÍA OCEJO Pint Jug

£42.00 Sold out
DESCRIPTION
Perfect for serving table water, sauces or a carafe of wine, this jug has been made on the potter's wheel in a classic rounded shape with a handle and pouring spout.
 
Handmade by London-based ceramicist Lucía Ocejo, the jug is finished in a pale silvery grey glaze that's full of character with flecks of golden yellow where iron in the clay has reacted with the atmosphere of the kiln. The clay on the bottom third is left raw for a textural contrast.

A classic piece of pottery that has been made to last.
MORE DETAILS

It features a robust handle stamped at the bottom with a maker's mark, and a wide rounded belly that tapers down to an elegantly narrow base.

This jug is from the first firing in a gas kiln which Lucía constructed by hand in the Oxfordshire countryside. Look closely at the glaze across the surface and you'll see a crackled effect that adds depth and interest, thanks to the unique atmosphere created by the gas kiln.
