An expressive example of traditional Iberian pottery, this handcrafted vessel features a deep green lead glaze with fine craquelure and sculptural handles in the shape of intertwined serpentine forms. Decorative frog motifs — symbols of water and fertility — add a touch of folklore charm.
Such pieces were commonly used in Catalonia and Valencia as càntirs or botijos for serving water or wine, combining practicality with artistry. The rich green glaze and organic modeling make it a striking accent for any interior — a piece where rustic tradition meets sculptural elegance.
