Rhenish Stoneware
#history #archaeology #rhineland #stoneware #steinzeug #retirement
You thought I was done, but you’d be wrong. I ended the “research” but there’s still, well, stuff to do.
For one, I did not yet go to the Westerwald. This is the “other” continuing stoneware pottery centre.
The Westerwald is where potters from Siegburg and Raeren went at the end of the 16th century. Siegburg was running out of wood and losing customers to the newer Rennaisance designs of Frechen ... https://www.zahr.koeln/2026/04/18/rhenish-stoneware-you-thought-i.html

To cater to these more demanding customers it was also necessary to include good decoration, ideally on a par of what was possible in pewter.
For this the Rhine/Meuse area is perfect.

#history #archaeology #rhineland #stoneware #steinzeug #retirement #BartmannGoesGlobalAt the end of the Gothic period and the beginning of the Renaissance the cities on the Rhine and the Meuse held an ever larger group of people with a bit of money and a need to represent. A similar need was had by the lower nobility.
They wanted better tableware than their poor "cousins", but pewter was out of the question. IN parallel, more sophisticated (and longer lasting) stoneware drinking vessels could be seen in the taverns.
The stoneware followed the wine trade and the beer trade of the Hanse all the way to Scandinavia, Iceland, the Baltics, Russia, England, and of course what are today the Netherlands and Belgium.
From the Netherlands and England stoneware than crossed oceans.
There is a really fascinating project, [Bartmann goes global](https://www.bartmanngoesglobal.org) that follows the stoneware to the Americas, Africa, Asia, South East Asia, even New Zealand and Australia.

#history #archaeology #rhineland #stoneware #steinzeug #retirement #Raeren #LangerweheMy subsequent visit to Langerwehe was a bust. The [Töpfereimuseum](https://www.toepfereimuseum.de) is closed for renovation (rebuilding?) and the interim exhibition was not yet ready.
I did have a brief talk with the resident potter (quite a nice shop actually). And he told me that while Raeren made stoneware for export, Langerwehe served local markets mainly.
So back on the list it goes

#history #archaeology #rhineland #stoneware #steinzeug #retirement #Raeren #LangerweheThis brought me to a visit to Raeren. With the car, because that exceeds my abilities (80 km one way). And because I passed it, I also visited Langerwehe.
First Raeren is pronounced with a long a (Raaren). Second, it is a German speaking bit of Belgium. Nothing to do with world wars though, it was part of the Spanish Netherlands.
Anyway, Raeren. There is a **very good** [museum](https://www.toepfereimuseum.org) with an also **very good** website.
The museum is in the castle.
And here we find also some of the tools of the stoneware trade, namely [molds](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molding_(process))
And the stoneware that could be made with molds.
