Description

This is a moulded water bottle from India, a very popular item over there for storing drinking water.

Ideal receptacle for water as the clay will soak the water in and transpire it into the air with the effect of cooling the bottle and chilling the water. Its size is approx 9.5cm diameter and 28cm high, holds 1.1L.

Great item for your restaurant tables to give an ethnic and original look. Always stand on an impermeable surface or plate as the outside will become wet.

Wash thoroughly before use, steep in water overnight before washing with a light detergent, swill with clean water.

Please be aware it comes with a screw top which is designed to prevent items or insects getting into the bottle, it may not seal the bottle and may not stop water leaks if the bottle is inverted or laid on its side.

Most of our tableware products are sourced in India. Samples of products have been subjected to laboratory testing for leaching of heavy metals into the contents of the cups. Results of these tests are available upon demand but all samples have passed these EU regulatory tests and can be deemed to be suitable ‘For Food Use’. We try, where possible, to source our supplies from small independent and family run businesses.

Some of our tableware products are unglazed earthenware and need to be ‘seasoned’ if you wish to re-use them. Otherwise they are disposable, you cannot use them again for food or drink as the porous earthenware can retain some of the previous product but you can re-use them as flowerpots, paintpots, trinket pots etc. Our glazed cups are re-useable without any preparation. They are not frostproof.

Please be aware that the products we supply are natural products made from 100% clay and as a result after firing they can be subject to slight distortion and twisting and also display small firecracks.

Also, please note that as these are made by small rural potteries where quality control is something never heard of, there may be some small imperfections in the cups such as small chips and cracks etc. We try hard to send out only the best we have to offer but you have to be realistic as to the quality they can provide.
