Characterized by their spherical bodies, these antique pots were traditionally used throughout southern Italy for cooking legumes, showcasing the rich culinary heritage of the region. Each robust black terracotta cooking pot, commonly referred to as a pignate, embodies a rustic charm that adds warmth and authenticity to any space.
