{"product_id":"double-banded-aydn-storage-jar-1","title":"Scallop-Banded Aydin Olive Jar","description":"\u003cp\u003eAydin sits inland from the Aegean in country given over to olives, and a jar like this carried the oil from one pressing through to the next. A press runs for a few weeks a year and everything it makes has to keep until the following autumn, which is why these jars were built heavy and sunk to the shoulder in a cool store.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo applied bands run around the body with their edges pinched into scallops, worked by hand along their whole length while the clay was still soft. Between and below them a zigzag is cut into the wall, scored with a tool rather than pressed, and it is the only mark on the jar made for no reason beyond being looked at. The clay fired a warm rust brown, clouded grey across the shoulder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday its scale makes it a floor piece, standing alone in a corner or planted with something tall. A jar this size has to hold its own from across a room, and the weight of the form is what does that for it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kasa Petra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46934076326049,"sku":"KP-00185","price":830.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/2346\/9217\/files\/Lokasyon2000pxKare186_7ae02297-93ed-4984-8b18-7326c76e8b5b.jpg?v=1788075063","url":"https:\/\/kasapetra.com\/products\/double-banded-aydn-storage-jar-1","provider":"Kasa Petra","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
