I bought this garlic holder a long time ago for myself and ended up buying another as a gift to my sister. I love that the inside is a pretty white ceramic and its such a unique item. I honestly never knew I wasn't supposed to put fresh garlic in the fridge until I read about this item. Its so pretty..sometimes i keep it on the countertop, but then when the counters are too full, i'll put it in the spice cabinet. If you're thinking about it, I say buy it! Its really something I think I'll keep in the kitchen for the rest of my life

An avid lover of any foods containing garlic, I recently read an article about best types of garlic to use for freshness and optimal ways for bulb garlic storage. While there are many more seemingly convenient (and costly) garlic products like chopped and stored in oil, peeled and refrigerated cloves, the least expensive but best garlic is good old fashioned bulb garlic. The caveat is it must be kept in a cool, dry, dark place to prolong its freshness (not refrigerated). And so began my hunt for the perfect storage container. I happened upon this one from Food 52 and although it seems pricey, just think of all the money you are saving on not being peeled cloves or jarred chopped garlic. When I received it, I was more than satisfied because it is not only a stunning, beautiful stoneware pot that looks decorative on my countertop, it holds at least six large bulbs of garlic and keeps it perfectly fresh. A quick smash on a clove with a large knife and the peel will easily come off. The best part, my husband even commented how nice it looks on my countertop. A product that works well, looks beautiful and even the hubby likes, is a winner!

Beautifully made pottery. A little larger than expected, I put shallots in mine. I would definitely buy more from these artists, highly recommend.
