Pot with lid

Pot with lidA ceramic pot with a lid is a very versatile ceramic dish. It is intended to store dry products such as flour, pasta, groats, rice and salt in the kitchen or pantry. However, those don’t exhaust its uses. Pots with lids have ribbed bottoms and can also be used for baking and serving food. Unlike most dishes by Bolesławiec, they are not decorated with stamps, but glazed in a uniform dark brown color and also fired at high temperature, which makes them resistant to damage. The pots can be used in the oven, stored in the fridge and washed in dishwashers. Thanks to the lid, the food does not get cold so quickly, and the top of the dish does not brown or dry out during baking. D-111 decorationThis is one of the classic decorations of Bolesławiec pottery, on which peacock eyes used to be the main decorative motif. We have here cobalt circles with white centres with cobalt dots in the middle, whose edges merge into a cobalt cloud. A stitch in green and brown - another traditional decoration colors - make the decoration lighter visually and more interesting. All decorations of the pottery manufactured in Zakłady Ceramiczne "BOLESŁAWIEC" are hand-made by artists using traditional methods - with stamps and brushes. After decorating and glazing, the pottery is subjected to a second firing at high temperature, thanks to which both the pottery and the decoration gain resistance to damage and colour change. Each hand-decorated item is unique, as slight differences in decoration are inevitable.
