About Stoneware:
Our stoneware is nonporous, nontranslucent pottery fired at high temperatures, making it highly scratch-resistant and safe for dishwashers, even with intensive programs.
Quality Production:
We fire our stoneware pottery twice for a superior glaze finish. Bisque firing at 900°C and glost firing at 1200°C ensure excellent quality. These bowls have less than 1 percent water absorption, making them exceptionally safe for dishwasher use.
Support Sustainable Production:
Our pottery is crafted with local clay, and we use energy-saving kilns, making us a sustainable, small business. With over 20 years of experience, Danko is a skilled craftsman committed to producing unique and high-quality pottery.

Step 1: Drying
The transformation begins with the unveiling of the clay, initiating the crucial drying phase. As the clay gradually loses moisture, it undergoes a subtle transformation, growing stiffer and experiencing shrinkage. Following the initial shaping, our pieces are carefully swathed in soft, plastic sheets—meticulously sealed, without perforations. This artful encapsulation slows down the drying process, allowing the pieces to remain malleable for several days.
Control is paramount during this stage; rapid drying risks potential cracks, which would prematurely halt the artistic process. Our artisans ensure every piece is allowed to evolve with precision, preserving its integrity and artistic potential.
