Ceramics: A Timeless Blend of Craft and Art đ¨
Ceramics, one of humanityâs earliest industrial endeavors, has always been more than just functionalâit embodies artistic expression. Even in its earliest forms, it was recognized as an art form, blending utility with beauty.
The lands that now form Bulgaria have a rich and diverse cultural heritage, shaped by numerous tribes and civilizations. Thracians, Romans, Slavs, and Proto-Bulgarians all left their mark on the regionâs ceramics. Situated close to the Mediterranean, Bulgaria has also been deeply influenced by the areaâs vibrant and diverse culture, enriching its crafts through the ages.
At DankoHandmade, we honor these deep traditions by reinterpreting them in a modern way. Every product line we create reflects a unique style and character, yet all of them carry the comfort, warmth, and soul of the Bulgarian land.
The Process: From Clay to Art
(Explore our shop to discover the other stages of pottery making!)
đż Wedging: The Foundation of Perfect Pottery
Wedging is a vital first step in pottery making, where clay is mixed and kneaded by hand. By rotating and pressing the clay on a worktable, we ensure itâs thoroughly homogenized and free of air bubbles.
Why is this important?
Air pockets in the clay can cause explosions in the kiln, ruining not only the pot itself but potentially others fired alongside it. You can spot air bubbles if the clay reveals Swiss cheese-like holes when sliced with a wire. Through careful wedging, we create a smooth, air-free clay, ready to be shaped into something beautiful.
