Old Water Storage Jars Photo


I found this group of large water storage jars tucked away in the corner of a Bangkok temple. Still commonly used for their original purpose they are also often found as decorative house or garden ornaments, although the ones in this photograph appeared neglected and a little forlorn, as if waiting with open mouths for something to store.

Always a pleasing shape, to my eyes the older they get the more photogenic they become with weathering and staining adding new layers of pattern and texture.
