Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

Hand-glazed Spanish gargoulette—these traditional ceramic jugs from southern Spain—whose shape evokes a watermelon split open by the summer heat.

The jugs were designed to keep water cool in the Mediterranean heat: their porous clay walls “breathed” through the glaze, thereby cooling whatever they contained.
