In the villages of Burkina Faso, talented artisans of the Lobi group meticulously crafted the unique and rare Lobi Pot. Formed from the clay in the African earth, the skilled hands of the artisans molded intricate, bumpy patterns into the pot and lid. Throughout history, the Lobi Pot's purpose was a vessel for water and medicine and later became a cherished repository for precious treasures with ceremonial significance.
