Rustic Sage Brown Garlic Keeper with Brown Squirrel and Raw Diamond

Description

Gorgeous flowing browns with hints of olive make this extra fancy garlic keeper a real gem.  This jar measures approx. 4 1/4″ wide x 5 1/2″ tall from bottom to top of the squirrel’s ears on the lid. It will keep your garlic nicely and can be used for other treasures, too ~ even a luminary when the lid is off. Great for roasting single heads of garlic. A smaller keeper, this piece holds approx. 1 1/2 cups ~ 1-3 large cloves, or more smaller cloves.

Created from white sandy Northern California clay (some from my own farm), the base is wheel thrown and impressed with a vine and leaf detail surrounding the base. The beautifully styled lid is hand formed and includes a hand sculpted little brown squirrel as the knob. Then, everything is hand glazed with food safe, oven safe, dishwasher safe glazes.  The glazes on this piece are simply gorgeous! To add interest and a touch of uniquely native sparkle, I’ve fired a raw Lake County Diamond into the squirrel’s paws. You can read more about Lake County Diamonds on our site’s blog.
