Explore our collection of handcrafted ceramic pitchers, created and carefully decorated by hand in our artisan workshop located in Italy, in Sardinia, in Calangianus.
Choose from various capacities: 1/4 liter, 1/2 liter, and 1 liter, and embrace the ecological importance of using a pitcher for water or wine to serve your favorite beverages, adding a touch of authenticity and ù sustainability to your table.

In recent years, you might have seen ceramic jugs on restaurant tables or among the decor in magazines. Today, they are making a comeback, yet before the invention of plastic and the economic boom of the 1960s, ceramic containers were one of the most practical solutions for holding liquids.

More durable than glass, they were produced in many sizes and shapes for everyday use: suitable for cooking as well as for transporting food and trading oil and
wine. If you want to furnish your kitchen to make it more environmentally sustainable, consider checking out our handcrafted ceramic jugs.

What is the difference between a jug and a carafe?

The Pasella craft workshops offer various sizes and solutions: from the 1-liter jug, wide and suitable for holding water to bring to the table, to the intermediate sizes of ½ liter and ¼ liter, ideal for serving small portions of fruit juice or wine for a light meal. Choose the size that best fits your needs.

Ceramic Pitcher

Our ceramic pitchers are handcrafted and decorated in various styles and colors. From the minimalist pitcher with a white glaze and subtle engravings that highlight the terracotta color, to those with “freehand” colored enamel strokes, and even a combination of these techniques creating a raised effect with vibrant hues.
Among the most recurring themes, you can find the corals of the western Sardinian coast, floral patterns, and the classic Sardinian gallinella, a symbol of auspicious rebirth. The glazes used in the firing and decoration processes of the ceramic pitchers are food-safe and also dishwasher safe.

The current shapes of the ceramic pitcher are derived from traditional Sardinian ceramics, such as the scivedda (a large container, essential in Sardinian kitchens, used for various dough techniques and baking), vases, and large amphorae that were
still used in Sardinian rural areas until the mid-20th century to collect water from the source.

Let yourself be inspired by Sardinian craftsmanship to refresh your home: from ceramic plates and glasses for your table, to spoon rests and soap sets for the
kitchen, and ceramic vases and lamps to decorate the dining room.
