We manufacture all of our products ourselves. We rely on traditional handicraft production techniques and mostly turn our pottery in the classic way on the potter's wheel. After the drying process, the pieces are biscuited in the first firing and provided with our own glazes. They are then fired again in glaze firing to achieve their final shape and durability. In the final production, each piece is carefully cleaned and checked before it is made available for sale.

Tip: We believe that a ceramist should be able to provide detailed information about the composition and properties of his glazes at any time.

Ceramic glaze is a layer of fused glass applied to the surface of fired clay to give it a smooth, hygienic and durable finish. Glazes are often made with heavy metals such as copper, cobalt, tin or zinc, which can be hazardous to health if used incorrectly. That's why we only use our own glazes, specially developed by us for food contact safety - and tested by independent laboratories before we use them.
