The Rope Handle Vessel is meticulously crafted from Italian clay. Artisans hand-pack the clay into a mold through a process called Calco. Each mold is left to dry for 2-3 days, during which the clay naturally shrinks, making it easy to remove the mold. The urn is then transferred to a kiln and fired at 950 degrees, resulting in a beautiful piece that can grace your space both indoors and outdoors, bringing timeless elegance to any setting.
