Introduce
CERAMICA ARTYSTYCZNA "WIZA" was started in 1963 by Stanislaw
Wiza. Initially it was a very small concern with few employees and
few small electric kilns. The pottery flourished due to careful
attention to design, both in body shapes and patterns. The
manufacturing process was also improved, new kilns better clays
general attention to detail. Our pottery is stoneware, that is
white bodied pot fired to a very high temperature to make the body
as hard as stone. This makes the pot functional without a glaze.
There are three types of pots produced in the world: 1.
Earthenware-low firing temperature [the pot has to be glazed to
hold water] this means that the body is soft and the pot can easily
be chipped-once chipped water can enter and bacteria breed in the
chips and cracks. 2. Porcelain-high firing temperature the body of
the pot becomes hard as stone-but it is potted very thinly so that
it is translucet-very fine but easily broken and does not resist
high temperatures. It cannot be used as ovenware. 3. Stonware-high
firing temperature the body of the pot becomes hard as stone-not
translucet-body resists high temperatures and is therefore ideal as
oven to table ware it is functional even without glazed and is
tough and durable, therefore ideal as durable everyday table ware.
It is also suitable for use in the microwave and as the decoration
in under glaze dishwasher safe.
Our white stoneware is fired at a very high temperature and the
only paints that retain a good colour are metal based. The
decoration is under the glaze and therefore permanent. The range of
these paints is very limited. Traditionlly cobalt [blue] as in
early Chinese porcelains gives a good rich colour that can, if
skilfully applied be varied in intensity. Many of the blue and
white sponge applied patterns thet distinguish and make the areas
weres identifiable are traditional. The body of the article is
extremely tough and durable and does not need to be glazed to be
functional.
At present pottery Wiza offer their clients a lot of patterns as
well as that are unique to this pottery. We have been working on
developing some lighter more delicate colour ways but stock a rich
range of the fuller deeper more treditional sponge ware designs
that relate to earlier times and that characterise the whole area.
Our aim is to use qualified local designers to develop a new range
of patterns whilst retaining traditional quality and character. Our
pottery is under glaze decorated using lead and radium tree
colorants.
The main advantages of the chemical composition used in our
stonware is that we can guarantee our clients a safe reliable and
durable product. Which is under glaze beautifully decorated in a
very wide range of Traditional and modern patterns that will bring
a glow to your kitchen and table.
