Description

The Mara is a primitive terracotta vessel which was made in rural Shanxi in the 1950s hand-formed from local clay and used in everyday life long before it became a decorative object. This vintage earthenware piece was shaped by time, and would make a beautiful addition to any home.

The worn grey tones and surface markings on the pot come from years of use, creating a patina around it that feels natural rather than decorative. It works well on its own or styled with dried stems in rustic or wabi-sabi interiors.

Works on its own or with dried stems.
