Designed to mark the 75th anniversary of the Argillà International Ceramics Festival and the 50th of the Museu del Cà ntir d’Argentona, Cà ntir 2025 is now available for online purchase.
The piece reimagines the traditional cà ntir, interpreting a utilitarian vessel into a sculptural narrative that unites contemporary design with Catalan ceramic heritage.
At its core, the work pays homage to the women who, for millennia, carried water from springs, rivers, and wells to their homes-a quiet, collective labour of resilience. A silhouette on the vessel’s flank depicts a woman balancing a pitcher on her head, turning the object into a living memory and a tribute to feminine strength.
