Pozzo della Cava

cervoI’ve been looking at Italian pottery lately, specifically Medieval wares.  I found this site on Pozzo della Cava in Orvieto.

Part of this cave contained a pottery during the 13th-16th centuries.

There are  photos of pots/shards that were unearthed at the site.

I think this pitcher has amazing form.
