What is the difference between Cretan pots and other terracotta pots?
Cretan pots have a well-deserved reputation and sell in large numbers throughout Europe and America because, quite simply, they are like no other. The clay from which these pots are hand-thrown is found locally and its characteristics give the pots their unique colour, texture, strength and durability. Add to this the thousands of years and countless generations of master craftsmen perfecting the art in Thrapsano and you can understand the demand for them.
