WHY WE LOVE IT
The Huancito Textured Lines Clay Carafe is a one-of-a-kind piece that celebrates centuries of Purépecha ceramic techniques. Handcrafted in the Huancito region of Michoacan, Mexico, the hand-carved textured details on this clay vessel adds a warm, earthy touch to any space. The vibrant melon shade brings a refreshing pop of color to the terracotta base, creating a statement piece that feels timeless yet contemporary.

Designed for both function and beauty. Functional for holding water or as decor in your kitchen or as a vase.

*Because this carafe is unglazed and naturally porous, it may sweat slightly when filled with liquid. We recommend placing it on a small tray or coaster to protect your surfaces.

Elena Felipe Félix & Family — Huancito, Michoacán

Elena and her family continue the Purépecha tradition of barro bruñido (burnished clay) in Huancito, Michoacán, where pottery is both art and everyday life. From digging local clay to hand-painting fine lines and polishing each piece with a smooth stone, their process reflects generations of care and technique. Elena’s work bridges heritage and modern design — each vessel carrying the warmth, texture, and spirit of Huancito, Michoacán.

  • Cure before use: Submerge the piece completely in water for 20 minutes to allow the clay to absorb moisture and seal naturally. After soaking, rinse well multiple times until water comes out clear.
  • Clean: Rinse occasionally with water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasives to preserve the natural clay finish.
  • Dry: Let the dish air dry completely before storing. This keeps the clay strong and prevents moisture buildup.
  • Avoid Prolonged Water Exposure: Barro is a natural, porous material — while durable, it’s best not to leave it soaking in water in the sink for long periods.
  • Handle with Care: Each piece is handmade and unique.

Do Put in the Dishwasher!
