Tuzhong - Old Chinese terracotta wine jug No. 12
Handmade
Vintage
One-of-a-kind pieceAn old jug weathered by time, shaped by hand in rural China in the early 20th century. Made of terracotta, these jugs were traditionally used to store rice wine in homes and on farms.

They bring a raw, elegant wabi-sabi quality to any space, whether used as a decorative vase for dried flowers or displayed as a sculpture.
One-of-a-kind objects, they can be displayed alone or grouped together to create an organic, balanced setting. Not watertight.

- Origin: China

More about how your order is prepared
Careful, reused packaging
Your parcel is prepared in our warehouse in France. As most of our pieces are one of a kind, the packaging has to be made to measure, which takes a little longer than for standard products. The item is protected and packed in a cardboard box for the safest possible shipping.
The little extra? We reuse packaging as much as possible to reduce our impact on the planet.
collection by the carrier
Once your order has been prepared, the carrier chosen at checkout is notified and your parcel is collected the next working day.
The carriers we use most often are Chronopost, Colissimo or UPS for home deliveries. For pickup point deliveries, we offer the Mondial Relay and Chrono Shop2Shop networks.
