{"product_id":"20th-century-rim-dipped-kayapa-glazed-jar","title":"Rim-Dipped Kayapa Glazed Jar","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese jars were glazed in the village of Kayapa, where the pot was held by its foot and dipped head-down, so the glaze took the top and left the base bare. It went on for a reason rather than for looks: glaze seals porous clay, and a sealed jar could hold oil or vinegar that would otherwise soak straight into the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis one went into the glaze barely past the rim, so a narrow collar took the whole of it and the bare clay carries the rest of the body. Two short lugs sit at the shoulder, pressed on as stubs rather than pulled into loops, enough to steady the pot while it was tipped but not to carry it. The body is wide and low and sits flat, and the clay fired to a bright orange red that the glaze line cuts straight across.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday it works on a shelf, a console or a hearth, where the glazed upper half catches light and the bare clay below it does not. That division is most of what gives the piece its interest, and it sits as well among books as it does on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kasa Petra","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":48113198334113,"sku":"KP-00112","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":48113198366881,"sku":"KP-00113","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":48113198399649,"sku":"KP-00114","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/2346\/9217\/files\/Lokasyon2000pxKare297.jpg?v=1788064298","url":"https:\/\/kasapetra.com\/products\/20th-century-rim-dipped-kayapa-glazed-jar","provider":"Kasa Petra","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
