Indonesian Large Terracotta Water Jar, Indonesia late 19th century
Located in Utrecht, NL
As a country with rich cultural heritage, handicrafts produced in Indonesia also display a high level of diversity. Each province, even each production centre has its own speciality and uniqueness. Following the nation’s motto of “Unity in Diversity” (“Bhinneka Tunggal Ika”), the diversity of Indonesian handicrafts is united by a single underlying characteristic: uniquely beautiful items that epitomize the beauty of nature. This water jar possesses an elemental, organic power that comes from its rich historical origin, earthly palette and materials. Pottery made of earth and water elements becomes extraordinary because it has passed through various times, and carries a layer of each phase of its life. The shape and decorative elements of this jar is distinctively Indonesian, with a handcrafted asymmetric shape, terracotta colour and subtle rings running around the body. Earthenware is one of the most commonly used ceramics...
