“Botijo Grande” vase

The botijo represents one of the most immediate examples of design born from function. The porosity of the terracotta allowed for slow evaporation of water, helping to keep it cool without the use of mechanical devices. The form thus tells a direct relationship between material, climate, and daily life.

In this Valencian example, the compact body is left in the natural tone of the clay. The handle, spout, and top opening form an organic and immediately recognizable silhouette, in which each element maintains its own visual function.

Placed in a contemporary interior, the botijo can live as a small domestic sculpture. It finds its place on a shelf, a console, or a sideboard, alongside books, natural materials, and other Mediterranean ceramics.

Use and Care

The piece is offered as a decorative object. Any use with water should only occur after verifying its perfect integrity and suitability for the purpose. For normal maintenance, use a dry cloth and avoid detergents and sudden temperature changes.

The Charm of Handmade

The not perfectly regular profile, the variations in grain, and the chromatic differences of the terracotta bear witness to the artisanal craftsmanship. Each botijo retains its own presence, far from the uniformity of industrial production. An object selected by Vicode for its ability to combine ingenuity, tradition, and design culture.
