Toocook Artisan Terracotta Olla for Ecological and Natural Automatic Watering for Indoor and Outdoor Plants with autonomy of approximately 7 days - Handmade - 250 ml

• Water Absorption - When the ceramic container is filled with water, this is absorbed into the pores of the ceramic material, releasing it directly to the ground
• Gradual Release - The release of water occurs gradually and continuously, as long as the container contains water and the surrounding soil is able to absorb it. This occurs because water tends to move from areas of higher capillary pressure (inside the container) to areas of lower capillary pressure (in dry soil).
• Irrigation - This principle is exploited in low-tech irrigation systems, such as "ollas". An olla is a terracotta container buried near the roots of plants. Filled with water, it slowly releases water into the soil, watering plants efficiently.
• Moisture Conservation - In horticulture and agriculture, the use of ceramic containers can help keep soil moist for longer periods, reducing the need for frequent watering. The capacity of 250 ml of water will guarantee the plant the necessary needs for 5 to 7 days. The duration may vary based on the consistency and type of the soil.
• QUALITY GUARANTEE of the product is given by the artisanal production which, thanks to decades of experience, has been perfected to obtain maximum functionality. If there is a quality problem with the product you purchased, you can get a full refund.

The history of Umbrian ceramics

Umbria is an Italian region that has a long tradition of ceramic making that dates back centuries and has evolved to become a unique and distinctive art. Umbrian ceramics are known for their rustic beauty and their natural colors, ranging from yellow to red to brown. Most Umbrian ceramics are produced by hand, using traditional techniques that have been handed down from generation to generation and this makes each piece unique and unrepeatable. One of the distinctive characteristics of Umbrian ceramics is its rustic shape, which is often inspired by nature and shapes found in nature, such as leaves, flowers and animals. Umbrian ceramics are very versatile and are used to create a wide range of products, from cups and plates, to statues and garden decorations.
