Modern Interpretation Of Terracotta Clay Pot Keeps Food Cool Without Electricity

It looks pretty, too! 

A Zeer pot is a traditional pot-in-pot refrigerator that dates back as far as 3000BC. Surprisingly enough, this kitchen gadget is still used in India and Nigeria. These kinds of pots are composed of two clay pots, an outer pot lined with wet sand, and an inner pot where food items can be stored. 

London-based designer Ellie Perry created a modern interpretation of the Zeer pot called the Terracooler. Unlike its predecessor, this new pot is tri-tiered and fits right on the kitchen counter. Learn more about this handy kitchen tool here.
