clay jars
Terracotta storage containers
Clay jars are containers made from fired earth, among the oldest human artifacts.
The term often appears in biblical and archaeological contexts: The Dead Sea Scrolls were preserved in clay jars.
Clay jars suggest ancient storage methods and fragile vessels—things that endure yet break easily.
