Ceramics, an ancient and enduring craft, stands as one of humanity's earliest industrial pursuits, evolving into an art form even in its nascent stages. The cultural tapestry of Bulgaria, woven by numerous tribes like the Thracians, Romans, Slavs, and Proto-Bulgarians, has left an indelible mark on the region's ceramic heritage. Influenced by the Mediterranean's rich cultural tapestry, Bulgaria's crafts have thrived through the ages.
At DankoHandmade, we honor this rich tradition by infusing it with a modern sensibility. Each of our product lines exhibits a distinct style and character, yet all carry the essence of comfort and warmth from the Bulgarian land.
The Ceramics-Making Journey:
(Explore our shop for insights into various stages of ceramics creation)
FIRING:
The alchemical transformation of clay into ceramics unfolds through the firing process. This metamorphosis, akin to turning soft beginnings into resilient ceramics, traces back to ancient times when pottery endured the ages due to the fusion of clay and fire.
Bisque Firing: Initiated at high temperatures, this process vitrifies clay pots enough to withstand subsequent glazing without compromising their integrity. The delicate balance ensures they're resilient but not excessively vitrified, allowing glazes to adhere flawlessly.
Glaze Firing: After applying glazes to bisqueware and allowing them to dry, a meticulous loading of the kiln follows. Utmost care is taken to prevent pots from touching, preventing the amalgamation of melted glazes. The kiln's gradual heating and subsequent cooling bring the clay and glazes to their optimal maturity levels.
Only after the kiln has cooled does the unveiling of the transformed ceramics occur, a testament to the intricate dance between fire and clay that has echoed through millennia. Explore our shop to witness the artistry that emerges from this ancient yet ever-relevant process.

INFORMATION I COLLECT
To fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorised Etsy to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order, for example), if you contact me directly.

I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:
• as needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
• when you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for my mailing list;
• if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and

I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL INFORMATION OUTSIDE THE EU
I may store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions. As a result, I may transfer your personal information to a jurisdiction with different data protection and government surveillance laws than your jurisdiction. If I am deemed to transfer information about you outside of the EU, I rely on Privacy Shield as the legal basis for the transfer, as Google Cloud is Privacy Shield certified.
