Polish Pottery Is Made To Be Seen

There are many different types of decorative pottery styles made around the world but a standout, particularly when it comes to stoneware dinnerware is Polish pottery. The manufacture of Polish pottery, and particularly the pottery that comes from Boleslawiec, has become recognized as some of the most valuable and collectible in the world.

The appeal of handcrafted pottery that features traditional Polish patterns making use of swirls, circles, loops and flowers in tiny detail comes from the decorative patterns and strong use of colors. The pottery itself is particularly durable, made from stoneware so it will withstand daily use without constantly having to worry about it chipping or cracking. The pottery is microwave proof and dishwasher safe making it an extremely functional type of pottery.

As well as the traditional Polish pottery patterns that are available from the major Polish pottery manufacturers it is also possible to find more unique pieces as part of a more exclusive range known as the Signature Unikat Polish pottery collection. These pieces are handmade pieces that have been designed and finished by gifted artists who sign every piece as they are completed.

Many people have fallen under the spell of collecting Polish pottery with the desire to buy as many pieces of a particular pattern as possible, continuing on to complete the entire collection in the same pattern. Those who are traditionalists will prefer to collect pieces that have been made following the traditional patterns regardless of who the manufacturer may be. Others will prefer to buy the work of a single manufacturer such as Zaklady, Ceramiczne, Bunzlauer or Wiza to name but a few.

Be warned that you run the risk of falling under the spell of buying “just one more piece” as you find the appeal and beauty of Polish pottery too captivating to resist. Make sure you have a display area available that will do your collection justice because they are too attractive to store away behind the doors of a crockery cabinet.
