Organic Handmade Clay Pots

In the Magdalena River, central Colombia, the women from a village called La Chamba continue to carry on an artisanal tradition that spans at least 700 years It is made from dark organic clay found in the region using traditional techniques.
The pottery is shaped by hand and then the surface is polished with semi precious stones to give the pottery its distinctive black colour. It is unglazed clay, so it contains no lead or toxins. Then the pottery is fired in an open air kiln at high temperatures.
The naturally porous quality allows the cookware to retain heat and enhance flavours which is suitable for those who embrace and appreciate the merits of cooking and presenting in organic, hand crafted vessels.
This product is safe to use in the oven and microwave, under the grill, on the stove top, and over direct flame. Natural variations in colour and size are typical of a handcrafted product.
