Handcrafted Replica Roman Fire Pot – Inspired by Ancient Naval Warfare

Details

These ceramic fire pots were a deadly weapon used in ancient naval warfare. Filled with flammable materials, they were launched onto enemy ships using a sling, shattering on impact and spilling their burning contents across the wooden decks—causing chaos and destruction.

This museum-quality replica has been filled with sand for safety and is not flammable. It is intended for decorative purposes only.

Materials

  • Earthenware

Dimensions

  • Handled Fire Pot: Approx. 120 mm tall, 130 mm diameter
  • Fire Pot Without Handles: Approx. 130 mm tall, 95 mm diameter

Health & Safety

  • For display purposes only: This item does not contain flammable materials and is not intended for use.
  • NOT a functional weapon.

Production

Each piece is handmade in Northumberland by Potted History, taking inspiration from original artefacts. The fire pots have been fired to authentically replicate the look and feel of ancient examples.
