The Melancholia jars from Muubs are hand drawn in terracotta. Afterwards the raw jar gets a base of black colour, which then is sanded. Then a thin layer of grey colour is applied which also is sanded to get the right colour and nuances. Finally the jar gets a layer of coating. Use it as a flowerpot with a plant in it or use it for decoration as it is. Be aware of that you cant plant directly into the jar. Please note that the jar is not waterproof.
