Know before you buy
No, this piece is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the hand-painted finish and the integrity of the enamel, we recommend hand-washing with mild soap and drying immediately.
While the heavy-gauge steel is durable, this pitcher is not insulated and is primarily designed for cold beverages like water, juice, or iced tea. It is not microwave safe, so it should not be used to heat liquids directly.
Not necessarily. Because each piece is meticulously hand-glazed and painted, slight variations in the pattern are expected. These unique characteristics are part of the artisanal process and ensure your pitcher is one-of-a-kind.
Yes, the pitcher is engineered with a drip-free spout designed to provide a clean, controlled pour, minimizing spills on your table or countertop.
The pitcher is crafted from heavy-gauge steel, so it has a substantial, high-quality weight to it. The side handle is designed for a comfortable grip, but keep in mind that the total weight will increase significantly once filled with liquid.
