Birka Jug, HandmadeThis amazing jug is based on finds from Birka, Sweden. It is wholly handmade through a time consuming process here in Sweden without a potters wheel, just as the original was made over 1000 years ago. In order to make it more durable and easier to clean, its made from stoneware with a matte glaze inside. This allows it to be washed in a dish washer and it can also withstand a microwave oven. 14 jugs of the same type have been found in the Viking city
