Designed by Portuguese Rui Pereira, the Barro Jug is part of a tableware collection that brings the warmth and beautiful simplicity of terracotta to the table. Meaning ‘red clay’ in Portuguese, Barro represents the designer’s appreciation of the traditions and uses associated with this ancient material.
The jug’s generous two-litre size combined with its soft touch and comfortable, easy-to-grip handle makes it pleasurable to use. Crafted in Portugal from durable terracotta, Barro Jug can be used alone or mixed with other Barro tableware to create personalised table settings.
Dimensions: H32 X W11 X L15.3, Material: Terracotta. Color: Dark Blue.
