stevasaurus 22,739 #5 Posted August 19, 2021 If you soaked that in water, it would keep something cool...fruit, garlic, tomatoes. I have something like that for keeping a wine bottle cool. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,878 #18 Posted August 20, 2021 Ok, let’s think about this logically. It’s not huge, but it has two handles. Is it meant for something heavy? Soaking something then pouring out? It strikes me as odd that it doesn’t appear to have a glaze. Is the clay itself waterproof after being fired? Scooping into a water bath of some type to get stuff out? Is it wine related? Getting the mash out of the juice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
