Garlic and onion need air, not plastic. They keep better where they can breathe, where moisture doesn't build up, where they last longer.
Maurizio's terracotta container is the right one for them. Terracotta is porous: it lets what's inside breathe, absorbs excess moisture, keeps the temperature stable. Garlic kept in terracotta lasts longer and smells better.
Handmade in Altomonte. The shape is open, ventilated, made for everyday use. It's not a piece to hide in the pantry: it belongs on the kitchen counter, always within reach.
It's used for garlic, for onion, for shallots. For everything you use every day that's better off outside a bag.
A container that does what it's meant to do. And does it well.
14x13 cm (ØxH); roundabout; 1pc.
The measurements may vary by millimeters because they are handmade.
