A storage jar found in Puglia.

Judging from the style and the clay, it is believed to have been made near Grottaglie.

Among the many preserved jars in the area that are straight and cylindrical, I was drawn to this sleek shape.

There are traces on the bottom that indicate it may have been used as a flower pot in later years.

The slightly yellowish glaze is one of the unique characteristics of this piece.

The building's appearance gives a quiet feeling of the time it has been passed down through the years, with its uses changing over time.
