The large table jug. One fill for the whole meal, the whole family.
A 1.5-litre clay dining-table jug for families of five to eight — enough water for a full meal without refilling. The proportionally wider pour-spout formed from the clay rim. Anti-topple weighted base. Aqua-Lock interior. XRF-certified. At 1.5L, the jug is the dining table’s anchor — present through the whole meal, doing its quiet work of keeping water cool and the table beautiful.
Key Features & Benefits
- One Fill, Full Meal: 1.5L is enough for 6–8 people to drink 2–3 glasses each during a meal without the jug being removed and refilled mid-course. For hosts who care about the flow of a meal, this is a practical advantage.
- Wider Pour-Spout: Proportionally wider than the 1L for the higher volume flow that 1.5L requires. Still controlled, still drip-free after the pour.
- Anti-Topple Weighted Base: At 1.5L full, the jug weighs approximately 2.1kg. The wider cork base ring is proportionally larger than the 1L for this weight.
- Aqua-Lock Interior: Sealed, watertight, inert. Mild evaporative cooling from the exterior clay.
- XRF Certified: Batch QR on base.
- Infused Water at Scale: 1.5L allows more generous herb or fruit additions while maintaining sufficient water volume for serving.
About the Material
The 1.5L shares the same clay body and construction philosophy as the 1L — pour-spout from the rim, Aqua-Lock interior, cork base. The key physical difference is weight: 2.1kg full means that single-handed pouring, while possible, benefits from a two-hand support for precision placement over glasses. The handle is designed to accommodate a second supporting hand at the base of the vessel. At 1.5L, the jug is also a natural centrepiece when filled with infused water — a large quantity of water with visible mint, cucumber, and lemon slices makes a visual statement at the dining table that a smaller jug cannot match.
The Science
The presentation of water at the dining table affects hydration behaviour. Studies in public health nutrition have found that households with accessible, visible water vessels on the dining table drink measurably more water during meals than households who fetch water from the kitchen. A beautiful clay jug on the table is not just aesthetics — it is hydration infrastructure.

Caring for Your Klayvi
| 1 — First Use | Rinse with plain water. Cook something water-based for first 2–3 uses. |
| 2 — Daily Clean | Klayvi Wash Care (pH 6–8) or sisal scrubber + warm water. Never standard dish soap — its pH 9–11 destroys the seasoning layer. |
| 3 — After Wash | Dry completely on low flame for 2 minutes. Never store damp. |
| 4 — Monthly | Apply 4–5 drops cold-pressed flaxseed oil. Heat on medium-low until just smoking (~4 min). Cool and wipe. |
| 5 — Never | Dishwasher · Microwave · Overnight soaking · Chemical detergents · Cold water on a hot vessel |

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the best way to carry the full 1.5L jug from kitchen to table?
Two hands: one on the handle, one supporting the base. At 2.1kg, single-handed carry to the table is possible but two-handed gives better control for precise placement. Once on the table, single-hand pouring is comfortable.
Q: Can I store leftover infused water in the jug in the refrigerator?
Yes. The Aqua-Lock interior is sealed and the cork base ring is water-resistant. Cover the top with a plate or cling film before refrigerating. The clay body will absorb refrigerator cold slowly and maintain the infused water at a consistent cool temperature.
Q: The jug is leaking slightly from the base. What is happening?
Check the cork base ring — if there is water under the jug, it is condensation from the evaporative cooling mechanism (moisture moving through the clay walls to the exterior), not a leak from the interior. This is normal and confirms the clay is breathing correctly. Use a coaster or cork mat under the jug if the surface is sensitive to moisture.
Q: Can I use this as a milk jug for serving?
Yes — the 1.5L size is perfect for serving chilled milk, cold coffee, or lassi at the table. The Aqua-Lock interior does not absorb dairy odours if cleaned promptly after use.
Q: Is the 1.5L available in the Bone Kaolin colourway?
Yes. Select your colourway at checkout. The Bone Kaolin 1.5L jug is particularly elegant as a dining table piece — the pale cream exterior with a bouquet of mint and lemon inside is a complete visual moment.
Q: How do I clean the interior of the narrow spout area?
A thin flexible bottle brush reaches the spout area. Alternatively, fill with warm water and swirl vigorously — the water pressure clears mineral deposits from the spout channel. For persistent scale in the spout, fill with diluted lemon juice, let stand 20 minutes, swirl, rinse.
