About product
Pot with handles on both sides, handcrafted on a potter’s wheel. Decorated with a raised chain motif, also known as finger ropes. The name of the decoration is derived from the production process, where a clay rope is pressed down with a fingertip at regular intervals. These finger ropes, made in this way, serve not only as decoration but also to strengthen the vessel’s rim. The shape and patterns of the pot are inspired by pottery products from Gemer. The inside is glazed with a transparent shiny glaze. From the outside, it is available in two color variations – glazed in green or brown glaze.
He learned the craft of Slovak folk majolica in Modra, actively starting production in 1985
