clay vessels
Fired ceramic pots
Clay vessels are containers made from clay that has been shaped and typically fired to harden it—pots, jars, urns, bowls, and similar objects.
The term appears most often in archaeological, historical, or biblical contexts: Ancient clay vessels found at the site contained traces of wine.
In everyday speech, people usually say pottery, pots, or ceramics instead.
