This small handcrafted stoneware pot, complete with its original carved lid and wooden spoon, is a tribute to functional rustic charm. Made in Portugal in the 1970s, it features a rich earthy glaze ranging from raw beige to rusty brown, with a slightly rough texture and kiln marks that speak to its traditional firing process.

The notched lid is designed to cradle the spoon, making it ideal for honey, preserves, or sugar. The piece embraces a wabi-sabi aesthetic — where utility and beauty meet in quiet imperfection.
