About the Item

This rare set of two monumental terracotta jars from Java dates to the 19th century and was traditionally used for water or grain storage. Each jar is hand-crafted and wood-fired, featuring a richly textured surface with natural patina. Their large scale and sculptural form make them ideal statement pieces for rustic, ethnic, or minimalist interiors. Slight variations between the two highlight their artisanal origin. These antique clay jars are frost-sensitive and best suited for indoor or sheltered outdoor use. Both are in good antique condition, with minor losses and surface wear consistent with age and use. A unique opportunity to acquire a matched pair of authentic Javanese pottery in XXXL size. Contact us before ordering to confirm product availability.
