Would a medieval fire cover have looked like this after one year of use?
This replica by #atelierable was used by @fakehistoryhunter.net , protecting her home against sparks and preventing her cats from lying down in the hot ashes.

I'm fascinated by how my curfew has changed after using it for over a year.
Medieval people would put this over their smouldering fire in the evening so they could go to bed safely and hopefully have still some glowing embers in the morning.

Some new things I recently made - mostly painted majolica and redware. These are replicas of both medieval and early modern pieces. Do you want to know something about a specific piece? Let me know in the comments!

The straw I use for shipping pottery is, to some, more welcome than the pottery itself :)

The best thing about having fragile pottery send to your home is that it comes with a free void, the abyss you shouldn't stare into and... oh wait, it's just Moortje.

I had a lot of fun at Lynn Museum today presenting Tudor music and dance to the fab 'regular' Home Educators' group!

We listened, sang and danced: one of my favourite sessions. 🙂

One day before firing... tomorrow is a hot day for these cups, jugs, bowls, whorls and dishes.
Most of them are replicas made after Roman, late medieval and early modern pottery.

Around the year 2000 26% of Dutch people are living below sea level.

The picture is part of a series entitled "Normal". I made it in 2020. My good friend Kasper posed in the cold water as businessman.

A picture of a young man in suit, steering a car while the water is reaching up to his chin. He is looking rather unimpressed with the situation.

Some pottery I made for Caesar's Ford Theatre in the US. It's now traveling over the Atlantic Ocean. To the right you can see the 17th century pieces that were used for reference.

four pieces of pottery: a redware pitcher, a cauldron and a bowl with green glaze on the inside and a large green cauldron. A large group of archeological pottery and glass with many colors and different shapes. Some pieces are broken of glued together.

The Louvre is a kind of majolica heaven! I visited the museum on Friday and saw this extraordinary pitcher. Dating: 1480. Made in Faenza, Italy.

I usually don't do cartoons but this guy makes me so angry. Wilders is a nonsense populist with dangerous xenophobic ideas. Today he took a dump on the Netherlands by dropping out of the Cabinet, blaming others while he was at the steering wheel.

Which piece do you like best?
They are still hot from the kiln. Most of them are replicas of historical originals from the 13th to the 17th century.

Some people think air pockets in pottery are dangerous, but it's really moist💧. Water expands about 1700 times when it turns into steam... you can move a train with that! So, drying your pottery is important. And: firing GENTLY.

The Roman mortarium was used for grinding food. That's why the inside has a rough surface. Below: my replica. Original: Rijksmuseum van Oudheden / dating 1-300 AD /

So much has existed far before the existence of humans. We might consider acting less like masters of our surroundings and more like travelers.

I just replaced the platform of my potter's wheel. The source: a playing card from 1455. 2nd image: my last event at #utrecht (Hanne Hansen Photography).

A selfie with a happy looking straw hat dude in the woods. Behind him there's a true wonder of medieval technology: a potter's wheel that consists of a platform with a kickwheel on top. Same dude but on a market square, using the potter's wheel in medieval attire while some people are watching A medieval image of a female potter working with bare feet on an elegant pot in front of her on the kickwheel. There's a pile of clay in the foreground, some jugs on a shelf in the background, a red shield with a white lion to the left and the name "hefneryn" written above her head

Which Bartmann jug is 500 years old, left or right? This dude is a true masterpiece of 16th century stoneware and I've just finished my first replica.

Two brown glazed jugs besides each other. They look very similar but the right one has a pewter lid. The jugs have a chunky body that actually looks like a body of a man wearing 16th century attire with a little cape and a smock shirt appearing from under his slashed upper garment. He's got arms closely pressed against his body and he's holding a glass and a jug. He's got a small face with a full beard, mustache and curls.

I'm trying out marbling techniques. The two small bowls are finished, the tall bottle is still in progress. The 17th century original in the picture was made in northern Italy. Marbled wares like these used to be shipped far and wide.

#pottery #handmade #pottenbakker #history #archeology #bowl
Small red and yellow bowl on a grey background. The bowl is shiny and the red and yellow colors are whirling around each other, like the colors in marble stone. The same bowl but seen from the side A tall bottle with bulbous belly and for shallow handles along the sides. It is marbled in the same manner but the colors are white and ochre. The bottle is standing on a messy worktable with all kinds of stuff lying around. A tall bottle like the one in the previous pictures, but this one is shiny and red-yellow. It's presented like a museum piece, which it is, on a white background. This bottle is part of the Victoria and Albert museum collection

I just finished this dragon pot. The body and the lid are wheel thrown. All the other details are sculpted by hand. I fired the dragon in my wood kiln at 1250°C.

A lidded pot in the shape of a terracotta colored dragon on four legs. The body is round and has thick spikes on the back. The wings are folded close to the body and the legs are short. The head has two pointy horns on top, ears like those of a cow and a silly and mischievous expression. The same pot but with the lid slightly lifted up by a hand The same pot but seen from the side. Now the spiky tail is visible.

Fresh from the kiln: my first try at a filigree jug! The original jug dates back to 1550-1600 and was found in a potter's waste dump in the Aulgasse in Siegburg. Collection Boijmans van Beuningen.

On a grey background: a cream colored jug with a round belly, small round handle and flaring neck. The belly has been cut open in an elegant rosette-shape like in gothic architecture. Pretty much the same jug but old and a bit more slender.

@atelierable.bsky.social hey there, I was looking at 15th/16th century playing cards and ran across this image I thought you'd appreciate, from about 1450. The cards are suited by kingdom, so she is the 2 of Bohemia

I've bought some medieval earthenware reproductions and they're so cool!
Here's a sneak preview of the tiny pipkin I got, perfect for making a one person stew or just so I have always some hot water on hand.
Placed near fire or later on embers.
