Ceramic Clay Pots with Lid

Some dishes are meant to arrive covered, so the guest lifts the lid and the aroma reaches them first. A clay pot with lid does exactly that, keeping each portion hot and sealed from the pass to the table. Makrey supplies ceramic clay pots to luxury hotels, premium restaurants and banquet kitchens, and has worked with F&B teams since 1981.

Ceramic Pot with Lid and Handle

A handle turns a pot into something a server can carry with confidence. Each ceramic pot with lid and handle in this range comes in 800 ml, in 6.5" and 8" sizes, in terracotta, silver antique, golden yellow, chocolate brown and black shiny finishes, with a 500 ml rippled-lid version in blue and unglazed finishes.

Low-Height and Footed Clay Pots

Smaller portions need a shape that still looks generous. Our low-height clay pot with lid and handle holds 380 ml (7") in black matt and unglazed finishes, and our footed clay pot with lid holds 500 ml (6"), raised slightly off the table for presentation.

Unglazed Clay Pot with Lid

Clay Pot FAQs

Are these clay pots or ceramic pots?

They are ceramic pots made from fired clay. Some are glazed in colours, while unglazed and terracotta finishes keep the natural look of clay.

Do the pots come with an earthen lid?

Each pot comes with a matching ceramic lid. On the unglazed pots, the lid has the same natural finish, giving the look of a traditional earthen lid.
