A Living Piece of Greek Tradition
The Pithos is one of the oldest vessel forms in the world — and this stunning interpretation is still made the traditional way on the island of Crete, Greece. Each jar is hand-thrown by skilled artisans using time-honoured techniques passed down through generations, resulting in a piece that is as much a work of art as it is a functional garden accent.
Finished with discrete banding and decorative handles, the Pithos confidently stands alone as a sculptural focal point or can be converted into a statuesque water feature. Its classic silhouette brings an air of Mediterranean elegance to any garden, terrace, or entryway — and works beautifully indoors as well, adding a natural, earthy warmth to living rooms, hallways, and sunrooms.
