The early craftsmen used the traditional hand-molding/wheel-throwing techniques and applied advanced methods of glazing in order to give a different look to the pottery. With the invention of sponge painting at the end of the 19th century, craftsmen could do the work of painting such elaborate patterns so much more easily and with far greater accuracy.

About Polish Pottery

Polish pottery is highly famed for its very colorful patterns and outstanding craftsmanship, representing a very rich cultural heritage that dates back as far as the 19th century in Bolesławiec, Poland. This particular form of pottery is often referred to as "Bolesławiec pottery," a name that is virtually recognized in the world due to its durability, intricate design, and unique hand-painted decoration. Production is initiated with locally available clay that is carefully molded into various shapes and forms in the skillful hands of expert artisans. Each of these then is decorated with everything from geometrical to floral motifs, usually in a combination of sponging, stamping, and hand-painting. Probably the most recognizable feature of Polish pottery is the signature blue-and-white color palette, though it also can show up in a rainbow of colors and detailed shapes. It becomes not only beautiful but also chip-resistant and suitable for use every day, for it gets fired in kilns at very high temperatures. Besides being utilitarian, Polish pottery has become highly regarded as a collectible art form with many pieces passing into family heirlooms. It shows pride in the craft and attachment to one's heritage. Moving forward, the art advances with new designs but retains its traditional techniques. Polish pottery enjoys international accolades for its quality and aesthetic appeal, which are equally pleasing, thereby making it a favorite choice the world over, both for practical use and decoration. The continued success and popularity of Polish pottery indeed stand as testimony to the skill and devotion of the artisans who keep this age-old tradition alive by blending history with modern-day elegance in each piece they create.
