{"product_id":"19th-century-chalk-white-urfa-water-jar-small","title":"Chalk-White Urfa Water Jar, Small","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese small jars were made in Urfa, in Turkey's southeast, where the summers run long and a household kept its drinking water standing in the house rather than drawn fresh through the day. Unglazed walls sweat a little, and the water evaporating off the outside carries the heat away with it, which is how a jar like this kept what it held cool through the afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis one steps in sharply at the waist and opens again into a wide flaring collar, the part a hand closes around when a full jar has to be moved without tipping. A band of openings runs around that join, cut into the piece rather than worn into it. Below them the body is pitted through with cavities from pinholes upward, and the whole has weathered to a soft chalk white that holds shadow in every hollow.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kasa Petra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46934084681889,"sku":"KP-0063","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/2346\/9217\/files\/Lokasyon2000pxKare862.jpg?v=1787894943","url":"https:\/\/kasapetra.com\/products\/19th-century-chalk-white-urfa-water-jar-small","provider":"Kasa Petra","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
