#pottery market

[japan-gourmet]

I went to the #Pottery Market called “Gojō Wákámíyá Pottery Festival ‘23” (last year) in Kyoto. I like traditional Japanese potteries, especially Hákémé.

Although I sometimes choose modernized Japanese ones as well. lol I have been looking forward to go to The Gojō Wákamiya Pottery Festival, since 2020, as you are able get good quality potteries in lower price than usual and you are able to talk to the artists of the potteries in person.

However, due to the **ndemic of **VID-1*, the Original pottery market, called “Pottery Festival of Gojō-Zaka” was cancelled in ‘20, and ‘21.

Therefore, sadly the original organizer of the pottery market called “Tōki-Matsuri-Jikkō-Iinkái” / “Pottery Festival Executive Committee” which had a long history was dissolved and a new one called “Gojō-Wákamiya-Tōki-Matsuri-Jikkō-Iinkái” / “Gojō Wakamiya Pottery Festival Executive Committee” was established.

Check it out on YouTube, and don't forget to subscribe to Japan Gourmet Channel. Thanks!

In ‘24, “The Wakamiya Pottery Festival” is going to be held on August 7th ~ 10th.

Pottery Ceramics Market: A Strategic Analysis of the Competitive Edge within the Industry

The global pottery ceramics market size is expected to reach USD 15.00 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2022 to 2030. Increasing investment in the construction of luxury housing units is expected to propel the consumption of pottery ceramic products over the forecast period.

Art ware products such as sculptures, vases, and pots are widely used by real estate developers to improve the aesthetics of the property. Thus, the development of new luxury residential units is expected to augment the demand for the product in the said forecast period. For instance, in July 2022, Jubail Island Investment Company (JIIC) announced the construction of 135 acres of the Ain Al Maha village residential project in UAE. The 240-villa waterfront community is anticipated to be completed by 2025.

The ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict has emerged as a challenge for the growth of the pottery ceramics industry as it has severely impacted the functioning of various industries globally. The conflict has affected trade and manufacturing, which has led to high volatility in commodity prices, thereby impacting the prices, demand, and supply of raw materials such as clay and gas.

For instance, in Bangladesh, clay from Ukraine was at least 10% lower than the clay supplied by other countries in terms of cost. However, considering the restraints during the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Bangladesh is importing clay from Malaysia and various European countries at high costs, which has augmented the production cost in the country.

Based on region, Middle East & Africa is anticipated to register the fastest CAGR of 4.9% in terms of revenue during the forecast period. The region is heavily investing in the construction of new luxury resorts and hotels, which is expected to augment the consumption of pottery ceramics products. For instance, in December 2021, Marriott International, Inc. announced that they are going to open two luxury hotels in Saudi Arabia in 2022.

Market participants continue to develop their products to stay ahead of their competition. For instance, in January 2022, Wienerberger, a provider of ceramic roof tiles, partnered with Exasun, a producer of innovative in-roof solar solutions, to manufacture high-performance X-Roof solar panels and X-Tiles to help in accelerating the energy transition process taking place in Europe and to expand their customer base in the region.

Pottery Ceramics Market Report Highlights

Rising gas prices around the world are negatively impacting pottery ceramics manufacturers. For instance, energy costs in Europe rose by GBP 400,000 (~USD 459,000) from February 2021 to February 2022

Based on product, the tableware segment held the largest revenue share of more than 73% in 2021. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the growing use of ceramic crockery in households and restaurants because of its aesthetic appeal

Based on region, in 2021, Asia Pacific was the leading regional segment with a revenue share of over 40%. The growth of the region is anticipated to be driven by the increasing investments in the development and renovations of hotels

The increasing penetration of the e-commerce industry is expected to positively impact market growth as e-commerce platforms help manufacturers sell their products anywhere across the world at the best price

How did you get into selling your ceramics? I'm interested in selling my stuff but have no clue how to begin

I started out selling on Etsy. I think it was a decent place to start. unfortunately the site’s definitely gone downhill since 2020, when I started. posting on Etsy did make it obvious that I had to learn to take good pictures, and taking that step has been a huge help in the long run.

in 2021 my spouse @subpar-lemon-bar and I set up some tables with a few other potters, outside my parents’ house, and sold my work. the sale went ok, though most of the people who bought my work were friends or acquaintances lol, so it’s debatable whether it would have been a success without their support

after that, I sold my work at a few local craft shows, sales, and a maker’s faire. some of them went great, a couple of them went badly. but it was a good experience and I think it was helpful for me to talk to so many people at events about pottery and art.

the easiest way to start that is, unfortunately, to know someone who organizes or sells at craft shows or markets, but you can also find yearly local markets and apply to be a vendor when they’ve got an event coming up.

I was offered a couple tables by artists who knew me and after we’d done a couple shows, we got to know a lot of the other vendors. you also need a decent amount of pottery if you’re selling at a market, unlike selling online.

in-person sales are a ton of work, and by the end we were always exhausted. but overall, we made enough money and enjoyed enough of it that it was very worthwhile

once I started this tumblr, I found I didn’t really need to do in-person shows. I never have to worry that my work is too weird or too naked or too queer on tumblr, whereas craft shows in a fairly conservative area were… not suited to all my work lol. I got a lot of comments on any piece with nudity, and not all of them were kind.

I also had a few of my pieces for sale in a local coffee shop for about a year. nothing sold, it just wasn’t the right place. I tried selling through instagram stories too, a bunch of potters would sell their work at the same time and post each other’s work. I didn’t sell anything. it was early on and I was a little disheartened.

if things aren’t selling, that doesn’t mean your work won’t sell. it might be that you haven’t found the right place for it yet

good luck!

birthday post!! warning, yapping ahead!!!

saturday morning was overcast, misty. quiet. the roads leading into town were winding, lined by unfamiliar trees. the sun burned off the mist, revealing clear blue skies, and i branched off onto a different road which brought me to the ranch.

the ranch had chickens and turkeys, baby donkeys and full grown pigs. alpacas and a cow! but everywhere i looked were ponies and horses. some stabled, some tied to a hitching post, some being trained in a corral.

the horse i rode that day is a former competition rodeo ropes horse named walt! he's fifteen, all white. there was one other rider there aside from our guide, and that rider's horse's name is marley. she used to jump hoops!

single file, with our guide in front, marley in the middle, and me and walt last, we set out on an hour-long trail through the bed of a former river. it's overgrown now with greenery, shrubs and small trees. the dirt trails were still littered with rocks, big and small, and poor marley must have slipped on them at least five times.

walt was very patient with me. the goodest, bestest boy. i know a little of the basics. a good seat requires balance, good posture. makes it easier for the horse to carry you. how to handle the reins for steering, how to urge the horse to go and or ask it to stop. i've ridden horses before, but you can count the number of times on two hands. so walt was patient. despite the fact i had to adjust my seat a couple times, despite the fact that he was last in a single file line with the longest legs of the three horses.

if you've never ridden a horse, there's an initial discomfort to overcome. straddling the horse's back, adjusting to its gait. paying attention to the road ahead of you. but once you get situated, that all fades to the background.

the rustling of small animals in the brush, the birds flitting back and forth. i heard the screech of some kind of hawk overhead, in a sky whose blue stretched far, uninterrupted by even a single cloud. the dust the horses kicked up as they walked, their snorts as they cleared their noses, the thud of their hooves against the ground.

we finished up around 11:30 AM. though i'd planned to have lunch after riding, i found i wasn't hungry just yet. so i set off to the olive grove where the olive oil tasting was happening.

the grove was out on the other end of town, out where there were more ranches and farms growing food. i passed an orange orchard that, spoilers, i ended up buying clementines from at the farmer's market i went to on sunday (more on that later, maybe).

at the entrance of the grove, there was a building, the tasting room, where containers of olive oil and balsamic vinegar lined one wall. you're given a wooden tray with circular indentations in it, deep enough to allow a small disposable cup (think—the kind you put pump condiments like ketchup for fries out into at restaurants) to sit in. next to each indentation is a label engraved into the wood to delineate between the oils and vinegar. you're also given a small loaf of sourdough baguette to rip apart into dippable pieces to taste with.

you make your way along the line of containers, filling your small cups yourself. they had a selection of extra virgin olive oils, infused olive oils, and interesting balsamic vinegars.

outside, they had picnic tables and hammocks under a small canopy of trees where you could sit and take your time tasting. i tried the olive oils first.

for the most part, the olive oil i've had has been cooking olive oil. the big containers you can get at costco, or at the grocery store. i've had good olive oil only a few times, back when i was in italy a couple years ago and wasn't in the headspace to really appreciate it. so i didn't really know what to expect from this tasting experience.

my brother-in-law asked me what i was surprised by from this experience, or something i learned from it. and it sounds so pretentious, but. i told him it's that you can really taste the notes in each olive oil, the ones that're mentioned in their descriptions. even just in the uninfused olive oils. the mild, buttery flavor of a more mellow oil and the spicy, almost peppery flavor of a more intense one. the way that a balsamic vinegar tones down or complements an olive oil when tried together.

they had a delicious garlic infused olive oil, a white truffle olive oil. a rosemary one, a lemon one. aside from their traditional balsamic vinegar, they had a peach one, a fig one, an expresso one, a cinnamon pear one. apparently, you can make a great lemon cake with the lemon-infused olive oil, or a bubbly, carbonated drink with the peach balsamic vinegar.

i ended up going home with an extra virgin olive oil made with olives from their heritage grove (peppery, spicy), the white truffle infused oil, and their traditional balsamic vinegar. i got my sister and brother-in-law an extra virgin olive oil that's smoother, milder, fruitier, and the peach balsamic vinegar—super sweet.

finally, i went for lunch. nothing too interesting to note.

following lunch, i headed over to an outdoor bookstore! it was lovely, exposed to the sky, greenery and plants everywhere. i ended up buying a book on art—The Artist's Palette by Alexandra Loske. it takes 50 artists from the 16th century until now and dives deep into one of their paintings and its color palette, the techniques used to create the painting.

i happened to pick it up because it caught my eye, and upon flipping through it, it fell open to the section on Artemisa Gentileschi. during my undergrad, i took a class on art history to fulfill some requirement, and in that class i wrote a paper on artemisa. she achieved a hell of a lot as an artist during a time when women weren't given opportunities to achieve, particularly in male-dominated circles. if you're curious, one of her most notable works is Judith Slaying Holofernes (warning for violence/blood/death). she's stuck with me, even after all these years, and the book opening to her section felt a little like fate.

after the bookstore, i headed to a wine tasting. i'm not a big alcohol person, and even less so now that i'm out of my 20s, but the area is known for things like their food, their olives, their wine.

my server was super sweet. she gave me a glass of rose on the house, and i didn't even tell her it was my birthday. i ordered a tasting menu of four white wines, and i sat at my table people-watching as i sipped.

it was still a little early for dinner, so i took a walk through downtown and came across a very busy park, despite the chill and setting sun. kids were running around, crawling all over the slides and monkey bars. people were walking their dogs. so i sat on a bench for a while and just let my mind empty as the blue sky flared in yellows and pinks and purples.

i'd take patch out to a pottery workshop or class. we'd both giggle as we mess up our creations, and splat clay over each other. we'd go to either of our houses and have a sleepover while we wait for our pottery to be fired in the kiln. we'd return the next day, and then paint our creations with pretty colours.

this magnet was made during my ‘oh fuck I have a show coming up and no small/cheaper shit to sell’ period, when I made 33 bottle magnets in about three days lol. it was madness. I keep meaning to do that again but ugh it takes so much energy

tip to anyone who wants to sell art at markets and craft shows: always have small $5-$20 items available. these can make the difference between a bad show and a decent one (or more hopefully a decent show and a good one). lots of people like to support artists but not everyone wants/can afford to buy like, a print, or a plate.

magnets and pins and patches, you guys. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gotten pins at a market. also I tend to remember the booth/artist later if I got something from them.

I’ve also had a few people at shows buy a magnet (and get my business card with it) and contact me later to buy a plate. sometimes it’s just hard to carry around a piece of art that might get damaged when you’re at a show!

I substituted for the pitcher workshop tonight and afterwards got called on my anxious comments by my colleague I hadn’t realized I was doing bc i hadn’t taught that form yet lol. I did bring a hand built pitcher I made in 2016 as an extra example and it was cool to see the difference between now and then!
