WHY THE PRICE IS JUSTIFIED

The maker lists a $95 price, approximately 6-inch height, terracotta clay, handmade hand-painted construction and dishwasher/microwave safety. NYMag’s interviewed owner uses the 23 oz size for juice or tea and says it is light enough to pass around.

DESIGN & ERGONOMICS

Hand-painted Lebrillo motifs and color variation make each pitcher visually distinctive. The small size suits breakfast, juice or tea more than all-day water service; hand-made variation is intentional and minor imperfections are disclosed.

LONGEVITY

Maker and retailer evidence identify handmade terracotta, dishwasher/microwave safety and intentional variation. A retailer advises periodic hand washing and says it is not oven safe. NYMag’s owner values its lightness, but no multi-year durability or repair support was documented. Current product pages in context showed the product; if a later live page is sold out, omit it.
