This charming vintage lidded jar is a quintessential example of mid-century inspired studio pottery, blending organic textures with a clean, functional silhouette. Handcrafted from a substantial, high-fired stoneware, the piece features a captivating "oatmeal" glaze characterized by dense rust toned spotting and a variegated, vertical drip effect that gives the surface a tactile, earthy feel. The minimalist cylindrical body is topped with a perfectly fitted flat lid, accented by a hand-turned button knob that showcases a delicate spiral detail on the crown.
The jar’s interior is fully glazed for easy cleaning, while the base remains unglazed, revealing the natural cream-colored clay body. This versatile vessel is in excellent vintage condition with no chips or cracks. Whether used as a sophisticated salt cellar in the kitchen, a decorative jewelry stash on a vanity, or a standalone accent on a bookshelf, this one-of-a-kind ceramic piece adds a warm, artisanal touch to any interior.
Condition: Excellent condition with no chips, cracks or breaks.
