El Puente del Arzobispo Hand Painted Ceramic Garlic Storage Jar (6 inches wide x 5 inches tall )

This colorful jar adorned in traditional patterns holds four or five garlic bulbs. They stay fresh and ready to use because there are holes in the clay to allow ventilation. At the same time, the bulbs last a long time because the darkness discourages them from sprouting. What a nice adornment to any kitchen counter, and a great hostess gift. Each jar is made by hand in El Puente del Arzobispo - a town that has been famous for ceramics for centuries. Every dash and detail was painted by hand, never silk screened or printed like cheaper imitations. Each jar is signed by the artisan. (Food safe, lead free, hand wash.)
