HN30 | Glazed stoneware "honey" jar, c. 1970
Description
The rounded body and the elegant curve of the handle make this jug a piece that seems to have been shaped by patient hands and an eye for detail. The warm hue—somewhere between honey and mustard—becomes more vibrant when touched by the light, while the slightly rough texture of the stoneware invites touch. It's easy to imagine it on a rustic wooden table, decorated with wildflowers or simply empty, serving as a discreet sculpture that warms the space with its organic presence. There's an honesty in this form, something ancient that whispers stories of other times, other tables, other gestures.
