ceramic vessels
Kiln-baked hollow forms
Ceramic vessels are containers made from clay that has been shaped and then hardened by heat.
The term encompasses everything from ancient pottery and urns to modern vases, bowls, and decorative pieces.
Archaeological finds of ceramic vessels provide crucial evidence about past civilizations, as these objects preserve well and reveal information about daily life, trade, and artistic traditions.
