About the Item

This small terracotta pignata pot with multi-colored spots, hand-thrown in Cutrofiano-Lucugnano, Puglia, dates back to the early 1900s and embodies the essence of "ceramica rustica." Commonly used for cooking legumes, this charming pot reflects the practical artistry of its time. The pot features a half glaze, which serves a hygienic purpose, allowing for easy cleaning after use. This technique was also a cost-effective choice, as it avoided the expense of fully glazing the entire pot. The delightful multi-colored spots add unique character, while the charcoal effect around the body and inside is a result of the cooking process, showcasing the pot's history. To care for this pignata pot, gently remove loose dirt with a soft-bristle brush, as cloths may snag on fragile surfaces. Washing with tap water is acceptable, but distilled or deionized water is preferable for better preservation. Always use lukewarm or cooler water to maintain the integrity of the terracotta. This functional piece not only serves as a cooking vessel but also as a beautiful representation of Italian culinary heritage.
