Details

We have decorated this rather elegant bowl in the chatterware or rouletted style. So named because the decoration is applied once the pot has dried somewhat, it is placed back on the wheel, and a tool is bounced or chattered over the surface to create these distinctive markings. 

This style of bowl would have been used to serve all manner of Roman delicacies, and although not considered high status at the time, it would have added a touch of class to any meal. The Romans really did know a thing or two about beautiful objects. 

'Add To Cart' items are ready to send straight away. Please be aware that if bought alongside 'Pre-order' items, your order will be sent when all items are ready. 

'Pre-order' items are made to order, and we will dispatch them as soon as we have handcrafted them for you; this usually takes 90 days, but international orders can take a little longer.

Production

This replica Roman pot was hand-made in Northumberland by Potted History, based on an original artefact. It has been wood-fired in an authentic replica of a Roman Pottery Kiln at Vindolanda Museum to a temperature of between 800 & 1000 Centigrade, using the same techniques the original potters would have employed nearly two thousand years ago. This process often results in surface colour and texture variations, emulating original Roman pottery and giving each pot its unique character.

 Materials

Terracotta clay, fired under reduction conditions

Dimensions

Approx. 125 mm tall, 165 mm diameter

Health and Safety

As with all of our museum-quality replicas, this piece has been fired to achieve an authentic finish. Like the original, it is unglazed and has no modern finishes applied. As a result, this pot does not meet modern health and safety standards, and although decorative, we recommend that you refrain from using this pot should not be used for its original purpose.
