This impressive vessel is a contemporary reimagining of the ancient Greek Amphora or storage jar. Standing nearly 2.5 feet tall, it features a graceful, tapered silhouette that widens at the shoulders before narrowing into a distinct neck. The entire body is wrapped in deep horizontal ribbing, adding a sculptural, tactile quality that catches the light. Finished in a matte, chalky white, it mimics the look of traditional whitewashed Mediterranean stucco. Two small loop handles at the neck complete the classical look, bridging the gap between antiquity and modern minimalist design.
With its 28.75-inch height, this urn is designed to be a floor-standing statement piece. It is exceptionally effective when used in pairs to flank a grand entryway or garden gate, creating an immediate sense of arrival and symmetry. The 11.5-inch opening is perfectly sized to hold a 10-inch nursery pot; drop in a tall Ficus, Olive tree, or even architectural branches.
