Medalta Ware is made using historic techniques, moulds, glazes and machinery originally used back in 1912 at Medalta Potteries. They are produced by skilled artisans at the historic Medalta site. Pieces are fired with natural gas that is pumped from under the facility.
Medalta is an innovative, industrial non-profit museum, contemporary ceramic arts facility, art gallery and community hub in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. Located within a converted century-old factory, it has become an exciting place where cutting-edge technologies meet historic restoration and archaeology come together.
Vases are made using the process of slip casting where liquid clay (slip) is poured into historic moulds. This process is used when items have an odd shape.
