Lebrillo Hand-Painted Terracotta Pitcher in Lilac by Pomelo Casa — 8″

Pomelo Casa’s medium Lebrillo Pitcher is an approximately 8-inch hand-painted terracotta pitcher patterned with traditional Spanish bird-or-pomegranate motifs in lilac. The size sits neatly between table-side and statement scale: useful for lemonade or gazpacho, kitchen utensils, or an everyday arrangement of flowers. Lilac gives the old folk motif a softer, unexpected character while remaining easy to combine with other colors. Handmade and hand-painted in southern Spain, every pitcher varies subtly in brushwork and glaze.

“This is a particularly good size for flowers from the garden because it asks for neither a tiny posy nor a formal arrangement. A loose handful is enough, and the lilac makes almost any green look beautiful.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Care & Ownership

Before first use, wash by hand in hot soapy water, rinse, and allow to air dry. The pitcher is dishwasher safe, although alternating with hand washing will help protect the hand-finished glaze from the effects of constant machine washing. Microwave and refrigerator safe; do not use in the oven. Small differences in brushwork and glaze are natural to these handmade ceramics.

Maker / Heritage

Founded by interior designer Francesca de la Fuente, Pomelo Casa grew from the ceramics she knew while growing up in southern Spain. The collection is handmade and hand-painted in a small family-run workshop in Granada, using traditional Lebrillo motifs and techniques the maker traces back more than five centuries. Formed from terracotta clay and finished by hand, each piece carries the slight variations in brushwork and glaze that distinguish ceramics made this way. The brand has been featured by Architectural Digest, Bon Appétit, and Domino.
