The Tain Pottery -"Glenaldie" Thistle Pattern The Tain Pottery offers a range of products created by traditional craft technique and skill. The ware has been developed by a team of artisans including two potters who between them have more than 50 years experience creating craft ceramics. The products cover quite a diverse method of manufacturing techniques, from hand built and thrown through jiggered and jollied to extruded and pressed. The principal clay body used is a white stoneware first formulated in 1981. It is fired to vitrification 1280 degrees centigrade, to eliminate porosity and can be used in microwaves, ovens, freezers and dishwashers. The range of glazes used revolve around a tin glaze first concocted in 1978 and then modified to fit the white stoneware body, tried and tested! All the decoration is hand applied by either brush or sponge.
