This jug is LARGE and IN CHARGE!!! We LOVE it!! This is a spectacular vintage Tribal clay fermenting pot, water jug, or decorative storage vessel with beautiful goatskin leather straps and a metal stand. It’s very similar to the vintage Tarahumara ollas or water jugs which were hand made by the Tarahumara Indian Tribes but because it is not marked, we cannot confirm that… but no matter, it is FABULOUS just as it is!! At 23 inches tall (25” on the stand!), it is large scale and would look INCREDIBLE on the floor or maybe on a console in the entry way. We think it looks spectacular empty but if you want you could fill it with dried pampas grass, bamboo, or any faux plant or greenery of your choice. If you REALLY want to use it as a vessel for real, living foliage, you will need to line it with a protectant so you can add water. It could also be a wonderful addition to your patio, deck, or balcony; however, you wouldn’t want to leave it out in extremely cold or freezing temperatures, it would probably break but it’s fine to be in warmer elements! It’s exactly what you’ve been looking for to complete that Tribal flair your home and decor has been begging for! Do it! Make it YOURS!!!
20th Century Tribal Large Scale Clay Fermenting Pot or Water Jug Black w/ Goatskin Leather Straps on Stand
$895
Lovely vintage Tribal large scale black finish clay pottery fermenting pot or water jug with goatskin leather straps and a metal stand. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. There is one larger chip on rim and small nicks and dings overall. We call that patina, and it does not take away from its overall beauty.The goatskin straps had moved out of place and we moved them back into place and secured with a touch of glue as the jug was not colored where straps are placed. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 20th Century.
