Madira
गोलवA quiet, balanced composition of distinct materials.
Madira reinterprets the traditional terracotta water vessel as a contemporary drink table. Its stacked form houses a recessed central ice well, allowing terracotta’s natural cooling properties to become part of the experience. A serving surface surrounds the well, bringing together material memory, function and the ritual of serving.
14” Dia. × 30” H (36 × 76 cm)
Wipe the terracotta surface gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged exposure to moisture. The recessed well is intended for ice.

Design Origin Story - MADIRA
An age-old material, given a new ritual.
Madira began with a simple observation: terracotta has always known how to keep things cool.
For generations, terracotta vessels have been used to naturally cool and hold water. We wanted to take that familiar property out of the vessel and give it a new role — one that belonged around a table rather than beside a well.
Holding wine in earth’s quiet cool.

Every material and finish is chosen with intention.
Hand-thrown Terracotta
Madira reimagines terracotta’s traditional ability to keep water cool as an integrated ice well, bringing an age-old material quality into a contemporary drinks table.
Red Earth Pigment
A natural red earth pigment gives Madira its warm, earthy colour, connecting the piece to the traditional use of mineral pigments in Indian craft.
Metal Stand
The metal components provide structural support and bring strength to Madira’s sculptural form, balancing the solid terracotta with a precise, functional framework.
