From the private collection of architect and artist Erol Oztan, ranging from 300 to 30 m².
Set of six hand-formed earthenware jugs with handles. Rustic utilitarian pottery with clear traces of fire and soot, typical of traditional cooking and water jugs from Southern Europe (Mediterranean region). The jugs are hand-thrown and show variations in shape and size. One piece features band decoration below the rim.
The dark discoloration is caused by use over an open fire or in a fireplace environment. This type of patina is actually appreciated by collectors because it confirms the authentic character of use.
