Italian Kitchen Garlic Keeper in Olive Green and Deep Red Speckle

Description

Part of our Italian Kitchen series, this garlic keeper is glazed in a soft olive green speckle with red speckled accents. It features a raw Lake County Diamond in the finial’s loop, adding sparkle and a touch of local California. It measures approx. 4 1/2″ wide x 6″ tall from bottom to top of the finial 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 heads of garlic. This lovely work of art holds approx. 2 cups ~ 4-5 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 vines and leaves surrounding the bottom. The beautifully styled lace lid is hand formed with an elegant impression surrounding a hand sculpted finial. Then, everything is hand glazed with food safe, oven safe, dishwasher safe glazes.

-Stoneware fired to over 2200 degrees for durability and ease of use and cleaning. The bottoms are unglazed and feature our maker’s mark.
-Please note that all of our stoneware pottery is hand crafted and no molds are used in the creation of our vessels, so please expect variations in hand applied glaze techniques and shapes. This ensures that your piece(s) are always one of a kind, and priceless.
*Props are not included.*
