A little rugged, a little moody, and beautifully unpredictable.
This one-of-a-kind porcelain milk jug combines the atmospheric character of Moonscape glaze with the rich green movement of Lime Shower. Deep, glossy green gathers around the neck and upper shoulders, contrasting with a softer, stone-colored surface scattered with dark speckles and organic markings.
The interaction between the two glazes creates a beautifully varied finish. Concentrated passages of green give way to lighter, mottled areas, with subtle shifts in color and texture revealing themselves as the piece is turned. The resulting surface evokes weathered stone, moss-covered landscapes, and the unpredictable beauty of natural processes.
Inspired by the familiar silhouette of a vintage milk jug, this contemporary ceramic piece transforms an everyday utilitarian form into a small sculptural object. Its angular shoulders, narrow neck, and distinctive handle preserve the recognizable character of traditional vessels while embracing the irregularities and individuality of handmade ceramics.
Each jug is individually created and glazed in Alissa Van Atta's North Carolina studio. The firing process allows the glazes to interact in unpredictable ways, producing unique variations in color, movement, and finish that cannot be precisely duplicated.
Whether displayed alone, incorporated into a collection of contemporary ceramics, or styled with dried botanical stems, this little vessel brings an unexpected combination of vintage nostalgia and modern sculptural character to a shelf, mantel, or tabletop.
No two jugs are exactly alike. This is the only 26.122.
