Which piece do you like best?
They are still hot from the kiln. Most of them are replicas of historical originals from the 13th to the 17th century.

Some people think air pockets in pottery are dangerous, but it's really moist. Water expands about 1700 times when it turns into steam... you can move a train with that! So, drying your pottery is important. And: firing GENTLY.

I just replaced the platform of my potter's wheel. The main source for this medieval kickwheel is a playing card from 1455 depicting a potter at work (Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien).
Second image: using the kickwheel during my last event at #utrecht (Hanne Hansen Photography).

Which Bartmann jug is 500 years old, left or right? This dude is a true masterpiece of 16th century stoneware and I've just finished my first replica.

I'm trying out marbling techniques. The two small bowls are finished, the tall bottle is still in progress. The 17th century original in the picture (from the Victoria and Albert museum) was made in northern Italy. Marbled wares like these used to be shipped far and wide, for example to north-west Europe but sometimes as far as the Americas.

Fresh from the kiln: my first try at a filigree jug! The original jug dates back to 1550-1600 and was found in a potter's waste dump in the Aulgasse in Siegburg. Collection Boijmans van Beuningen.

Here's some #pottery that I will fire tomorrow! Most of the pieces are based on historical objects but there are also some of my own designs. Ask away if you want to know more about a specific piece!

Just finished scratching the decoration into this plate. Next phase is drying, then firing and glazing. I was inspired by my girlfriends' fascination for #beavers.
