This antique amphora is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, showcasing a beautifully weathered surface and subtle texture throughout. Versatile and full of rustic charm, it could be displayed indoors with dried foliage, or placed outdoors as a decorative accent on a patio or garden terrace. Measures: 23.5″ diameter × 41″ height.
