The story of this piece
The zīr cooled water for generations before refrigerators existed — the porous clay breathes, and evaporation chills what is inside. This one is built by coil, the oldest technique there is, and burnished with a river stone.

Care
Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Keep away from direct dishwasher heat. Handmade clay loves gentle hands — small variations in glaze and form are the signature of the maker, not flaws.
