Originally used in Himalayan villages of Nepal for storing grains, ghee, spices, oils, or medicinal items. These vessels were hand-turned using simple woodworking tools and prized for their durability and everyday function. Wonderful organic form, visible turning marks, natural surface wear, and rich tonal variation that speak to decades of use and handling. Today, Tekhi jars are highly sought after as sculptural decorative objects in organic modern, wabi-sabi, and collected interiors. Beautiful displayed on open shelving, atop a console, or styled within a grouping of antique vessels. See less
