HANDMADE IN MEXICO

This rustic, decorative vase has been handcrafted in Oaxaca, Mexico, and will add a curated, global flair to any room that you style it in.

Story

Our artisan-made vase is covered in picos (spikes) that are representative of the thorns on a Pochote tree. Known as the Mexican “tree of life”, the native Pichote is believed to connect the underworld to the skies and heavens in ancient indigenous cultures. Created from rich Oaxacan clay, the organic nature of these pieces—they’re 100% hand-formed without the use of a mold—there are no two pieces that are exactly alike.

Santa María Atzompa, Mexico

The Enrique Family

This family of talented potters hail from Santa María, Atzompa in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico. A major centre for the production of pottery since the pre-hispanic period, the town was founded by the ancient Zapotec people in the 7th century and today it’s rustic community with the smoke from wood-fired pottery kilns ever present. This trio of siblings (like most Oaxcan potters) learned this venerable craft from their parents who learned from their parents before that, perfecting a generational process of creating pottery that is synonymous with the area. The brother and two sisters work with the rich, local Oaxacan clay, and the pieces are fired in a homemade kiln that has existed on their property for decades.
