Great covered baking dish – perfect for baking, serving, and storing food! 10″ x 8″ x 2″ deep. The traditional Polish Pottery art form, also known as Bunzlauer stoneware, has its roots in local folk art dating back centuries to the German province of Silesia. The first known pieces emerged in the 16th century, crafted by hand and decorated using a folk art stamping technique with potatoes. Original designs were inspired by the peacock feather, utilizing a palette of cobalt blue, sage green, and ferrous red. These classic designs and colors continue to inspire modern patterns. Skilled Polish artists today still handcraft and hand decorate each piece using small sponges to stamp patterns and apply colors. After mixing ingredients, molding the pottery, applying decorations and glaze, the pottery undergoes a twice-fired process. This meticulous process makes the pottery extremely durable, resistant to cracking and chipping, and safe for use in the microwave, dishwasher, oven, and freezer. With its exceptional quality and beauty, this Blue Rose Polish Pottery Hummingbird Medium Covered Baker is perfect for baking and serving a variety of dishes.
