About this piece
A ceramic bottle from the Alfajar workshop in Málaga, from one of its most distinctive collections. Alfajar’s bottles take their forms from the vessels of ancient Mediterranean cultures, flat, cylindrical, globular, angular or lenticular, and redraw them in a contemporary geometric language.
Each bottle is modelled and cast in a plaster mould, then decorated by hand with underglaze colour, sgraffito and wax resist. No two are alike; yours will be in the same style as the photograph, with its own variations. Signed by its maker.

Returns
You have 14 calendar days from receipt to return a piece, no reason needed. Email online@artescudellers.com, then send it back unused, well protected and, where possible, in its original packaging; return shipping is at your cost. We refund to your original payment method once the piece is back and checked. Made-to-order or personalised pieces cannot be returned, except for a manufacturing defect or transport damage. Orders can be cancelled free of charge until they are dispatched.
Hand-built and hand-painted in Málaga and fired at 1,250 °C, so the decorated surface is completely stable: it does not change when wet or with time. Clean with a dust cloth, dry or wet with water; no cleaning product is needed. The pieces are made as art, but a bowl, plate or tray can be used for food. Pieces glazed inside can hold water; one left unglazed inside seeps a little at the base, so stand it on a small plate. They withstand the weather, so they can live outdoors. Each piece is unique and signed by hand; drawings and glaze finish vary from one to the next.
