Old World 15" Rebekah Pitcher in Tuscan Farmhouse Glaze

About the Stoneware Rebekah Pitcher in Tuscan Farmhouse

Reminiscent of ancient pottery, the decorative Rebekah Pitcher features a style popular throughout antiquity, including Roman and Biblical times. Distinguished by a narrow neck and high handle, the pitcher style is today known as a Rebekah Pitcher, named for the famed biblical vessel mentioned in the book of Genesis and recognized as a symbol of kindness.

Artisan-crafted in North Carolina, the vessel begins life as raw stoneware clay shaped by hand on the artisan's potter's wheel, followed by the application of the sculpted handle. The finished work is high-fired in a kiln to a strong, permanent finish. The intriguing American-made Tuscan Farmhouse glaze is a blend of earthy beige, brown, and blue colors applied by hand, and adapts beautifully to a wide range of decor styles. 

If using as a vase, the stoneware vessel is safe for water. However, the opening measures only 1/2" diameter, just large enough to display a few thin dried botanicals or 2 to 3 fresh flower stems. Standing alone, the pitcher is ideal as a meaningful, decorative work of art. Measures approximately 15" high.
