Using the same techniques developed during pre-Incan times, this textured terracotta vase is crafted entirely by hand by artisans in Chulucanas, Peru. Terracotta is shaped into a low, curvy vessel on a potter's wheel, then a netting is applied to create the distinct serpentine pattern before it's kiln-fired. Each vase is fired several times to achieve a rich blackened finish, the result of a special kiln that imparts the natural resin of mango leaves onto each piece. Finished with an interior waterproof varnish, vase is perfect for dried and fresh stems alike. CB2 exclusive.Handmade. Terra cotta with matte black glaze. Each will be unique. Watertight.
