Hand-turned flowerpots and saucers of the traditional variety. Flowerpot production became an industry and mass production in Sweden around the turn of the century 1900. Before then, all pots were made by hand, as were the saucers. The profession was called pottery. Typical of handmade pots is that you can see the potter’s hands in the ware. The imprints from the hand-turning process create low ridges on the surface and show through on the outside. A hand-turned pot is therefore not as smooth as a machine pot, it is more personal and has more life and variety. A detail that also reveals the real craftsmanship is the soft, rounded rim at the top. It can certainly be made by machine, but it will never be as soft and individual as on a hand-turned pot.

Hand-thrown. Yellow-burning clay fired at earthenware temperature, which makes the clay mobile and often causes cracking over time, which makes the pot even more authentic. Delivered unbored as the original.

Glaze: copper oxide or tin oxide.

Tips! As the pots are made of clay, they are not completely watertight. Place the pot on paws or similar to avoid moisture underneath.
