=============================
Ceramics, among the earliest industrial pursuits of humanity, possesses inherent artistic qualities that have rendered it an art form since its nascent stages. The diverse tribes and peoples inhabiting Bulgaria's lands have bequeathed a rich cultural heritage, evident in the various forms of ceramics from Thracians, Romans, Slavs, and Proto-Bulgarians. The region's proximity to the Mediterranean has further enriched Bulgarian crafts with a tapestry of influences.
At DankoHandmade, we honor these traditions by infusing them with a modern aesthetic. Each product line bears a unique style and character, yet all carry the essence of comfort and warmth derived from the Bulgarian land.
The Process:

THROWING
Throwing clay is a meticulous process involving a swiftly revolving pottery wheel and various tools to transform a lump of clay into an exquisite ceramic piece. Beginning with centering the clay on the wheel head, an opening is crafted at the precise center, gradually expanding to form a cylinder. Careful shaping of the sides and mouth follows, with the piece removed from the wheel once dry to a leather-hard stage. Skilled potters then trim excess clay, add handles, spouts, or attachments, and undertake intricate carving, cutting, or re-shaping. While experienced potters make this process appear effortless, its mastery demands years of dedication and practice to create balanced, beautiful pieces.
