One Handle Water Jug

Discover timeless craftsmanship with this One Handle Water Jug, an antique Turkish amphora of museum quality. Hand-crafted in the Konya region of Türkiye, this terracotta vessel holds deep cultural and historical significance. Traditionally, amphorae were used to carry essential goods such as water, wine, and olive oil, serving both functional and symbolic roles in daily life.

This rare piece stands out with its single handle design and distinctive white-washed painted swirling pattern, showcasing the artistry of generations past. Remarkably, the original tied string still remains attached to the handle, recalling a time when the jug was sealed with a cork top.
