This is a beautiful piece. Suitable for use in the kitchen and for serving as well. Reminds one of the simpler and more sustainable days of old. I'd like to see more pieces like this that can serve multiple purposes.
Wonderful sturdy structure. The water smells and tastes delicious from this bottle. Cannot imagine using plastic bottles after switching to terracotta. The side handle is convenient to grip the bottle while drinking. Would love a coaster made of clay for this bottle included in the purchase. Even without it, it's gorgeous. Feels very special. Thank you. My water intake is more when I drink from clay bottles as I enjoy it compared to steel or plastic or silicon counterparts as it's natural.
I bought these as a birthday gift for a friend and she absolutely loved them. The skilled craftsmanship and the raw natural finish give them a timeless look and feel.
