This Egyptian pot is made in Old Cairo, the art and pottery center of the city for hundreds of years. Its shape makes this pot ideal for soups or stews and it's equally at home with beans simmering away inside.

It features an unglazed terra cotta finish on the outside and a clear, shiny glaze on the inside for ease of cleaning. With its rustic finish and shape, this pot has a really Old World feel, making it a great centerpiece for any meal. Serves 6 to 8.

Opening 9" x 7" H (23 cm x 18 cm) Because our pots are handmade, the actual dimensions may vary.

Bram exclusive.

A dish that contains both beans and a grain, such as rice, is a nutritionally complete source of protein.

Use & Care

• Stovetop, oven and microwave safe. For gas cooktops, may use diffuser or lowest heat setting. For electric cooktops, please use only with a diffuser.
• Clear ceramic glaze provides ease of cleaning. For difficult areas to clean, first soak for a few minutes in water, then scrub with a soft abrasive pad. Do not use metallic scouring pads.
• Dishwasher safe, but we recommend hand washing to give the best care to your earthenware. See our section Clay Cooking 101 for detailed explanations and effects of soaps and detergents on earthenware.
• Earthenware does not like extreme temperature changes. For example, do not take a pot cold from the refrigerator and place it directly on a stovetop or in a hot oven; it may crack.
• Before first use, please season. A complete explanation of this procedure is explained in detail in Clay Cooking 101.
