Terracotta Fleur is handmade from naturally occurring clay deposits of terracotta, meaning no artificial colours with oxides, this will result in colour variation between batches as well as each piece. The finish characteristics of the product can include lime pops, chips, hairline cracks and animal prints. These are not defects, as these are what make the range so appealing and unique. Sealing of Cotto is a very important part of the process.
