During our recent trip to Turkey, we discovered the beautiful Turkish Amphora urns. These containers, recognized for their two handles, hold historical importance in carrying liquid goods such as water, wine, and olive oil. Originating from the Konya region, this striking terracotta vessel showcases the area’s rich history and expert artistry. Each contour tells a story, and every mark represents the continuation of ancient traditions passed through generations. Crafted with precision and adorned with intricate details, the Turkish Amphora urns are not just containers but timeless pieces of art
