A PROTECTED CULTURAL ART

Tunisian Clay Vase – In Sejnane, Tunisia, the art of ceramics holds a special place in its culture recognized by UNESCO. Earthenware ceramics made in Tunisia are made with locally-sourced clay and baked with a unique open-flame kiln. This process gives the vessels their unique coloring and patterns.

This piece is a hand made item from Tunisia featuring exquisite coloring from the open flame process. Although made as a vase, the base of the piece does have some cracking. I would recommend using it as a dry vase or planter. Use as an art piece by displaying on a shelf or table or as a conversational piece in your space. A perfect way to cherish the time-honored traditions of Tunisia in your own home!

CARING FOR YOUR PIECE

To ensure the longevity of your piece, wash it by hand with a mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh cleaning agents that may scratch or damage the surface. Avoid extreme temperature changes. Handle with care, as earthenware is delicate. Not dishwasher or oven safe.
