The Sasak Story:Sasak is the ethnic name of the majority of the population of Lombok, Indonesia..
Despite the use of very simple tools, there is a remarkably high level of skill in their pottery. There is no potter’s wheel used, as instead, the maker herself moves around the object pressing it into the desired shape while layers are continually added to the original piece of clay dough.
After the pots are formed, they are fired in simple outdoor kilns fired with wood straw and rice husks, giving each piece its own unique fire markings. This pottery provides a wonderful accent for home or garden.
Condition: No chips or cracks, Ratan weave is flawless. Light scuffing in a few spots.
