The Orcio Toscano Festonato is Tuscany’s iconic oil jar, exquisitely handmade in Italy 🇮🇹. Celebrated for its grand size and decorative festooned (Festonato) design, this terracotta jar is a cornerstone of Tuscan tradition and artistry.

Crafted from rich, durable galestro clay, the Orcio Toscano Festonato  features a classic, rounded shape with a wide mouth, their original purpose was for storing olive oil or wine! Its surface is adorned with elegant festooning—raised, garland-like decorations that encircle the jar, adding a touch of sophistication and historical charm.

Each jar is carefully hand-shaped and detailed by Italian artisans, ensuring its uniqueness and connection to centuries-old pottery techniques. The warm, earthy tones of the terracotta, often unglazed, enhance its rustic elegance, making it a striking addition to gardens, patios, or indoor spaces.

Over time, the Orcio Toscano Festonato develops a beautiful patina, reflecting its journey and adding depth to its aesthetic appeal. Bringing this jar into your home is more than adding a decor piece; it’s embracing the rich heritage and timeless beauty of Tuscany’s craftsmanship.
