Questions About Roman Olive Jars
  • What are olive jars made of?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Olive jars are made out of two types of clay - gray clay from Vaugrenier and red clay from Clausonnes, both located in France. The two clays are mixed together to achieve the final color of the jar. You’ll find a variety of olive jars from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
