Raíces Cruet | Hand-Painted Ceramic

The South on your table: A tribute to the whitewashed courtyard

Raíces is not merely a functional piece; it is a direct bond with the earth. It is Seville, the echo of a whitewashed courtyard and the aroma of freshly poured oil on a sunlit morning.

This cruet, a cornerstone of our Raíces Collection, is born of memory and calm. The cobalt blue traces birds and flowers that evoke the azulejos of timeless Andalusian homes. There is no rush here: each stroke is transferred and painted freehand, layer by layer, honouring the time that signature craftsmanship deserves.

Identity & Design

• Signature Craftsmanship: Designed and hand-painted in Andalusia. A limited edition produced in small batches to ensure its exclusivity.
• Genuine Availability: We only offer finished pieces for sale, ready to be shipped and to become part of your home.
• One-of-a-Kind Piece: As this is a manual process, the subtle variations in the cobalt strokes ensure your piece is truly unrepeatable.
• Functionality: Ceramic glazed in ivory white with cobalt blue motifs. Food-safe interior. Includes a cork stopper with an anti-drip pourer.

Care and Conservation

To preserve the intensity of the cobalt and the glossy finish, we recommend:

• Hand wash with a soft sponge and mild soap.
• Avoid abrasive scourers and dishwashers. Not microwave-safe.
• Dry the pourer and stopper well after each cleaning.

The Kinara Promise: Sustainable Unboxing

We understand that a handmade piece deserves a safe journey that respects the environment.

• Natural protection: We wrap your piece in honeycomb paper, an organic alternative to plastic that cushions with maximum efficiency.
• A Safe Bed: It rests on kraft paper shreds to keep it immobile during transit.
• Eco-friendly Shipping: Everything is delivered in recyclable cardboard boxes. A package that is 100% plastic-free.

Simple care

Hand wash with warm water and mild soap. Microwave-safe in short cycles. Avoid thermal shock to preserve the glaze and pigments for years to come.
