Please note Working with Kultela wild clay is a true slow design approach. Your piece will age, dry, and fire carefully over time so that collection may take a few months.

Kultela clay coolers are not glazed. They cool your wine naturally through evaporation. When soaked in water, your handmade cooler will keep wine beautifully chilled – a timeless and sustainable piece to use and cherish.

Your connection to Finland When you create with Kultela wild clay, you are embracing local materials, full transparency, and a genuine piece of Finland. At UDUMBARA, you support ethical and environmentally conscious craftsmanship.
