Visit to a pottery in Bahrain

While in Bahrain we visited the A'ali pottery in Manama. They make these distinctive style of pots which are very popular here. People often have them in their courtyards as decoration or to house a lamp. The header photo shows a selection of sizes.

What a shame they were too big for  my suitcase!

Wow! Wee Three and I have just begun pottery classes this week, so it will be fun to show her these pictures.

So glad you've had a wonderful trip, and that you're home safely.

We also visited a ceramics factory in Turkey which was fascinating. Extremely skilled people were painting beautiful items. Will post some more photos soon.
