Moroccan Celadon-Glazed Lidded Storage Jar with Stub Handles

Size: 14"W x 28"H x 14"D

SKU#: VA157

A tall celadon-glazed lidded jar in the Moroccan ceramic tradition, hand-thrown in a tapered cylindrical form with a stepped, tiered upper body and two small stub handles at the shoulder. The pale sage-green glaze covers the whole piece — lid, body, and handles — with the heavy crazing and worn, weathered surface.

The stacked horizontal bands, the tapering lower body, and the ribbed ceramic finial give it a structural, almost architectural quality. It's a working jar shape — the kind historically used for olive oil, grain, or dry goods — translated into a decorative object by the patina and craft of the making.

The muted celadon and the utilitarian form make it an easy, grounded piece. It works in a kitchen, a pantry shelf, a library, or as a floor object, and fits as naturally in a modern or rustic room as a traditional Mediterranean one.
