This natural clay vase, hand-modeled in Atzompa, is a living homage to earth and fire. Its mineral pigments interact with the spherical body, where the raku technique creates delicate veins and crackles that narrate the piece's unpredictable journey within the kiln. The handle, sculpted in the shape of a turkey, draws inspiration from the domestication of these birds, when approximately 6,000 years ago they began approaching human settlements in search of food, like a symbolic guardian embracing the vessel and bestowing upon it its own identity. Every texture, every hue, and every stroke makes this decorative object a unique piece: a fusion of pottery tradition and artistic expression that transforms any space into a stage of history, color, and presence.
