Ceramics | Kitchen- Longpi Seasoning Pot BlackClay

Longpi seasoning pot made using an age-old technique unique to just two villages in north-east India. Made by mixing ground black stone with locally found clay, longpi pieces are hand built, left in the sun to dry out and then woodfired. The burnished finish creates a natural protective seal, whilst characterising longpi with its deep black patina. Being handmade, each will vary slightly in shape and size. Finished with a side loop which holds a neem wood spoon, made from timber from storm-felled trees and responsibly managed woodland in Jharkhand, eastern India. Details Hand wash. Clay and stone. Neem wood spoon. Made in India. Each ceramic piece has been thrown or pressed and glazed by hand. Due to the handmade nature, there may be pleasing variations and irregularities in colour, size and shape. Approx. H 9.5cm x D 7cm.
