A lovely terracotta milk pot hand-crafted by the Berber tribes of northern Morocco before making its way to Patricia and Walter Wells' house in the south of France. It features a classic matte brown patina on the exterior and a glossy brown glaze on the interior designed to keep the milk cold.
In Berber traditions, milk is seen as a symbol of fertility and is used on the third day of a traditional Berber wedding ceremony to bless the marriage - demonstrated as the bride and groom feed each other with a bite of a date and a sip of milk before a ceremony of commitment. This piece would make a delightful addition to a collection of pottery to add charm and tradition to your interiors.
