Measuring an impressive 53 cm in diameter, it was a vital, heavy-duty vessel in rural households, used for large-scale food preparation or washing. The exterior is beautifully raw, showcasing the earthy warmth of the unglazed terracotta and the deep, horizontal throwing lines shaped by the artisan.
