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.
