Party & Leisure Jars - Polish Pottery

From summer picnics and Friday-night films to full-scale birthday buffets, hand-painted Polish Pottery jars display every bite beautifully and keep it tasting fresh. Thick stoneware walls stay naturally cool, while the flawless glaze absorbs neither fat nor odour—after one dishwasher cycle each jar is perfectly neutral again.
