Details
Roll Pots are a set of natural terracotta cylindrical clay pots made from 100% Indian red earth. Traditionally crafted for storage and decorative use, these smooth, rounded pots also offer a sensory delight for clay lovers. Their deep red-brown tones, rich earthy scent, and satisfying dusty bite make them a distinctive addition to any collection or clay-tasting experience.
While not conventionally consumed, many in the geophagy community enjoy their soft, powdery chew and classic muddy claypot flavour. When soaked in water, the taste deepens — enhancing the grounded red-earth tones and evoking the nostalgic aroma of Indian soil after rain.

Traditional Clay Origins:
Terracotta holds a special place in India’s clay-eating traditions, especially in regions where red earth is abundant and rich in iron. For generations, small pots and vessels like these have been handcrafted from mineral-rich soil, sun-dried, and fired to preserve their deep, grounding flavour. In many rural areas, similar clays — often referred to as mitti or laal mitti — have been appreciated for their taste, aroma, and cultural symbolism. Roll Pots celebrate this enduring connection to Indian earth, uniting traditional craftsmanship with the sensory satisfaction clay enthusiasts love.

-
Sensory play and mindful texture enjoyment
-
Collecting and aesthetic display
