Maurizio's round oil pourer has that pot-bellied shape you don't see any more. Round in the middle, narrower at the neck, with a small spout that pours without drips or waste. An old shape, designed for oil.
 
In Calabria olive oil wasn't just a condiment. It was the heart of the larder, kept with respect, stored in terracotta because terracotta protected it from light and kept it cool.
 
Maurizio still makes it by hand, in Altomonte. Every pourer is different: the curve varies by a few millimetres, the glaze has its own variations. It's the signature of an object made without moulds.
 
Use it every day, in the kitchen or at the table. For pouring good oil the way it deserves.
 
A container that adds value to what it holds.
