Already for many millennia, clay is used to make a variety of products, and the craft itself is considered one of the most mysterious crafts. With this natural material, you can create real miracles, and at the same time get true pleasure from the creative process. While working with clay, your whole body, thoughts are in unity with the surrounding world. Quietly the potter's wheel is spinning, and time seems to slow down. Your look attracts clay. And I want to feel its plasticity! The palms gently squeeze the warm clay, fingers quickly glide over it. Although the clay succumbs to you, it also shows its character. It looks like frozen oil: it's warm and liquid outside, but inside it's hard. Due to the rotation of the potter's wheel, the remains of the clay are splashed on their hands. It's nice ... And now, before your very eyes there is magic: from a shapeless piece of clay appears your future cup, pot or plate. The clay product is carefully dried, carefully discarded in a wood stove and left in memory of these beautiful moments of creativity. How pleasant it is to drink fragrant coffee or fragrant tea from such a cup! After all, you made it, putting your soul and warmth!
