One of the most ancient occupations in Sifnos island is ceramics.
People needed to store, dine or carry out various every day jobs and pottery helped a lot!
Many of the cyclades islands have this old tradition of pottery, which is also evident if you pay a visit to archaeological museums.
While I was in Sifnos I discovered this amazing pottery shop where everything is handmade, the ingredients are of top quality and they even export to Canada (!!!)... Impressive? Not if you feel these handcrafts with your hands. There is always a reasoning! You can visit their site: https://www.sifnosstoneware.com/en/
Till next time, enjoy!
beautiful pictures :) I still admire the self made products :)
Indeed! Thank you for reading!
