		<description><![CDATA[<strong>Polish Pottery History:</strong> &#160;Polish Pottery created in the town of Boleslawiec Bunzlau, Poland. The original artistic ceramic creations refer to local traditions of the nineteenth century. The pottery is hand-thrown,<br />
under-glaze decorated with stamps and baked at high temperatures (1250 Celsius).<br />
<a href="http://amadeo.blog.com/repository/1712131/3679444.jpg"><img src="http://amadeo.blog.com/repository/1712131/3679444.jpg" align="right" style='margin-top: 7px; margin-right: 7px; margin-bottom: 7px; margin-left: 7px' /></a><br />
In the 17th and 18th century, craftsmen applied the decorations using their fingers and frozen potatoes. Today, the Polish pottery is still hand thrown, but the stamps are made of foam or rubber.<br />
<br />
<strong>Be come the expert:</strong> The original Boleslawiec <a href="http://www.potterybuy.com" title="art pottery">art pottery</a> and ceramics, with its famous eye spot decoration and the letter "B" printed on the bottom of each piece, has been produced in Poland since 1830. Since<br />
then, other patterns have developed and special patterns, like those specific to the holidays, are introduced from time to time.<br />
The patterns are designed to complement each other. Although, the designs vary from the traditional<br />
eyespots to stars or to elaborate flowers, the basic colors remain the same. This allows collectors of the pottery to mix and match patterns.<br />
<br />
<strong>Who is who:</strong> There are several factories that we purchase <a href="http://www.potterybuy.com" target="_blank" title="polish pottery">Polish Pottery</a> from. Some of them, <em>Art Pottery</em>, <em>Wiza, Rutyna, Manufaktura, Zaklady, Ceramica Artastazcna.</em><br />
Art Pottery is a modern factory which produce ceramic dishes using the latest technology and traditional patterns. Products which are made by Art Pottery are usually in light blue flower and fruit patterns. Thanks<br />
to that we always have full stock of <em>Art Pottery</em> products.<br />
<em>Dana Pottery</em> is the only factory in Bolesalwiec that continues to make Polish Pottery by the Original Traditional Methods. No machines are used. The Pottery is completely made by hand. All items are hand painted or hand stamped. Since these items are entirely made by hand they may have slight imperfections. This is the original way that the Polish Pottery was hand-crafted in the 19th Century by German Artisans,<br />
now these techniques are still used by the Polish Artisans at that DANA workshop. This makes each item<br />
a unique piece a true UNIKAT. As the order you place is made specially for you we need extra days to produce it. <em>Manufactura</em> Stoneware Factory „Manufaktura” in Bolesławiec is one of the leading<br />
producers of the hand-made pottery. Pottery products are hand-formed and decorated by use of the stamping technique. To make sure our products are of high quality we use our own paints. Daspite the<br />
wide range of designes we still continue to enlarge our offer.<br />
<br />
<strong>The features:</strong> Thanks to a longlasting tradition and their passion for the pottery their products are of high quality, the forms are interesting and functional and the choice of original designes is rich.<br />
<br />

50 years old pottery tradition present in Bolesławiec. Their company has found a bridge between the<br />
tradition and the changes in the modern world, which also inspire our designers. All this makes our pottery popular among buyers in Poland and abroad, in Europe as well as in the USA<br />

prepare and consume meals and to decorate the surroundings. That is why everybody may find here something for themselves. They are open to your suggestions and ideas concerning designes which<br />
