After all, they can help you avoid toxic metals and coatings, for example, and create meals bursting with moisture and flavor. Of course, they do require careful treatment, but as long as you follow all cleaning and storage instructions, any of these should stick around for years.

Editor's Notes
January 29, 2019:
Investigated various offerings made from clay, including terra cotta, ceramics, and unglazed options. For visual appeal combined with usability, it's tough to beat the Ancient Cookware La Chamba, Romertopf by Reston Lloyd, and Kinto Kakomi Ih Donabe, although the latter is rather pricey. Also selected the TianJi Purple Slow Cooker, which combines the benefits of clay with the ease of a slow cooker, and the Vyatka Ceramics Ramekins for the fun they bring to the kitchen.
