Miasto Ceramiki

I dragged Brandon on a pottery shopping trip to Poland this weekend, and I secretly think he actually enjoyed it!  Not only is it always fun to visit a new place, but the pottery was beautiful and we were lucky enough to get a tour of one of the pottery factories and see how these gorgeous pieces are created. 

I seem to be oversharing a bit lately with posting so many photos, but I was so impressed with the whole pottery making process that I just had to share!

I don't think you're oversharing at all! You can never take too many photos, I say! These are gorgeous (so is the pottery).

Seeing the pottery being created would make it tough to leave without a major purchase. I want some! Gorgeous photos.

Color me jealous! My three favorite things - anything Polish, photography, and pottery. Lovely! I love these shots. The hand-decorating is very cool!

The first picture of the artists at work is great. I love how you captured the detail of the piece, as well as the concentration of the artist.
