Tegelen clay between tradition and experiment

Keramiekmuseum Tiendschuur in Tegelen combines historical earthenware with contemporary ceramics. The studio, the museum collection and the setting on the Holtmühle estate make technique and presentation visible together.

Black ware and three colours

Compare Tegelen black ware (zwartgoed) with objects made in the three-colour technique. Pay attention to surface, firing method and decoration, and ask which steps in the production process cause the difference.

Contemporary answers in clay

In modern ceramics the same material can become a sculpture, an installation or an everyday object. Look for how the maker uses technique to steer form and meaning.

From display case to studio

Workshops and courses show that ceramics consist of actions: shaping, drying, glazing and firing. Ask which activity is actually available during your visit.
