Hi Steve, You said "urn." Do you mean an amphora that's rounded on the bottom but is a vase or is this really an egg-shaped vessel and the lid is just the top of the egg? Is yours out of Cone 06 Terra Cotta? I have a lot of red clay at Cone 6. It wouldn't be as porous. You want it unglazed and porous, right? What are the dimensions? I know you went through all of this before and I saved some of it, but bear with me. Thanks, Merla
