Our unglazed cooking pot is handmade in La Chamba, a village in Colombia, using techniques that have been passed down through generations. The artisans use clay sourced from the shores of the Rio Magdalena River that contains mica, allowing it to withstand heat.

Once shaped into the desired form, the pots are dried in the sun and then polished with precious stones. Speckles and dimples are typical characteristics of the clay type, considered a sign of unique beauty by the artisans.
