The Memory of Motion
Vintage Earthenware Vase
About the Product
Handmade terracotta pots, each shaped by hand and distinct in size, form and patina. Once part of everyday life in rural kitchens, these vessels now find a place as planters, vases and decorative objects.
Their surfaces carry traces of earlier lives, some darkened through use, others softened to rustic whites and deep, earthy browns. No two are alike. Variations in shape, colour, firing and surface are the marks of the hands that shaped them and the homes they once belonged to.
A collection of everyday vessels, given a new life.
Each piece is one of a kind. Size, shape, colour and patina vary from piece to piece. Photographs are close, but the piece may look slightly different in person and from different angles. Chips, marks and uneven colour are part of the original piece and add to the beauty of it.
Price mentioned is per piece.
About the Chapter
From The Memory of Motion, Origin & Form's first collection.
This piece has already made a journey. Long before it reached you, it moved: carried, wheeled, passed from hand to hand. It carries decades in its grain and the wear of the roads behind it.
You're not buying an object. You're buying the moment it stopped moving.
