About the Item

European terracotta amphora, early 20th century, featuring classic twin-handled design and traditional Mediterranean craftsmanship. This large-scale antique vessel showcases masterful hand-thrown pottery techniques with its harmonious proportions - a substantial ovoid body tapering to a refined neck and distinctive upright handles. The unglazed earthenware surface displays an authentic age patina, with subtle variations in the natural clay tones and gentle surface weathering that speaks to its century-old provenance. Standing approximately 12.6 inches tall, this impressive amphora exemplifies the enduring appeal of ancient Mediterranean vessel forms. Perfect as a statement piece in contemporary, traditional, or Mediterranean-inspired interiors. In great vintage condition with no damages or repairs, displaying only appropriate age-related characteristics that enhance its authenticity.
