Product Overview:
Mini Matki 250g features a collection of small, rounded clay pots handcrafted from Indian orange terracotta. These miniatures are inspired by the traditional matki — an iconic Indian earthen vessel used for storing water or grains. With a smooth, firm structure and a softer crunch, they deliver a gentle bite and a clean, earthy flavour. Each pot is shaped to reflect the curves of the original design, making them perfect for stash displays, collections, or sensory enjoyment. The aroma of fresh clay and moist topsoil enhances the experience, grounding you in the essence of Indian earth. There are 4 whole or mostly whole pots included and topped up with broken chips.

Traditional Clay Origins:
The matki has long been a symbol of simplicity and utility in Indian culture, used to store cool water in hot climates due to the natural breathability of terracotta. These miniatures preserve that heritage in a collectible form. Made from locally sourced clay, each pot is sun-dried and hand-shaped, reflecting centuries-old techniques passed down through generations. Whether used for display, storage, or gentle crunching, Mini Matkis offer a nostalgic, earthy connection to India’s clay traditions.

Storage Tips
To keep your clays and treats fresh, crunchy, and full of flavour, always store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture, humidity, and strong odours. Exposure to air or dampness can alter both texture and taste.
We highly recommend using our stash boxes, available on the website — designed specifically to protect and organise your clay collection with ease.
Handling Guidelines
- clean, dry hands.
- wooden spoon included with your order
Fragility Disclaimer
All clay treats and terracotta pot products are handmade and naturally fragile, making them susceptible to breakage during delivery.
While we take great care in packing each item securely, minor cracks, chips, or crumbled pieces may occur. This is a natural part of working with handcrafted clays and does not affect taste or enjoyment.
To help, every order includes a wooden spoon — ideal for enjoying broken pieces or powder just as deliciously as the whole form.
