Jarra
£101.0033h x Ø 13.5cm
Jarra is a self-cooling ceramic water container. Before refrigerators, clay vessels, known as a ‘jarra’ in Arabic, allowed water to seep through the walls to evaporate, leaving what’s inside cool and refreshing. For food safety, ceramics need to be glazed, however glazing compromises the natural cooling effect of ceramics. Instead, Jarra uses a modified glazing solution that still cools while meeting safety standards to allow for the refreshing taste of clay-cooled water. The body is designed ergonomically with weight distribution in mind to make it easy to hold, and pour.
