Description

This hand-thrown jug merges classic form with unique two-tone finish: a solid, deep cobalt base that grounds the piece, transitioning into our signature “Blue Nguni” glaze across the upper half and handle.

The mottled, speckled pattern of the Nguni glaze is inspired by the natural beauty of South African cattle hides, creating a lively, tactile surface that invites the touch. Balanced and comfortable in the hand, this jug is designed to bring a piece of artisanal craftsmanship to your daily rituals.

Product Features:

  • Hand-Thrown in Bathurst: Each jug is individually shaped on the potter’s wheel in Richard’s village studio, reflecting over 25 years of mastery.
  • Two-Tone Artistry: The contrast between the grounded cobalt base and the expressive Nguni upper creates a dynamic, atmospheric aesthetic.
  • Stoneware: Durable and designed for longevity, this piece is both a collectible artwork and a practical vessel.

Please note: Because each item is handmade, there will be slight variations in size, volume, and the exact flow of the glaze, ensuring your piece is entirely individual.
