the “Cantaros” are one of Alentejo's most traditional pottery. You won’t miss the soundtrack given by the “Chocalhos”, bells carried by sheep, nor the “Cajados”, the walking stick used by the local shepherds. The cork “Chocos”, once used to drink water, are now a symbolic piece of craftwork, just like the “Tarros”, cork containers used to transport food.
And finally, the baskets and the hats! Intrinsic accessories to Alentejo that are much more than carriers of food and sun protectors.
