Product Description

Ratchaburi Province, south of Bangkok, is well known for is production of water jars made from local red-black clay and decorated with a trademark dragon figure on the jar (thus the jars are often called "Dragon Pots").  The jars are handmade and the last step is to fire the jar in a brick stove called a dragon stove which uses eucalyptus and rubber woods as fuel.
