We can say for sure about the "Bānītis" kiln in Daudzese parish - the owners, Ināra and Guntis Ozolinis, have their own special style.
The name "Bāņītis" comes from childhood memories of the "Little Bānīš", which made its last journey on 31 August 1972. In the past, the people of Daudzevo were privileged - from Daudzevo you could take a train to Jelgava.
For several years now, the craftsmen have been working in the kiln they have lovingly created - black ceramic vessels, lovingly made, lovingly filled and heated in the fire.
A little reminder of what black ceramics are:
That is how mysterious and surprising the craftsmen's work with black slip pottery is.
If you are also interested in this craft, the owners will welcome you to their home in Daudzes, the birthplace of the small railway, if you make an appointment in advance!
