Chorotega pottery is one of the few traditions that remain from pre-Columbian culture in Costa Rica. Today, of course, the motifs on the pottery are stylized to appeal to the tourist market. In Guaitil, you can watch artisans make the pottery and buy directly from them. You can also buy the pottery at shops in Tamarindo, such as this one, and from vendors who walk on the beach.
This week we have photos of Tanzania posted on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site this week.
The pots on display look pretty accomplished, and I doubt that they're products of beginners. Looks like a fun place to visit.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun activity.
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted to make pottery. I'm sure I'd be hilarious at the wheel but it would be fun to try. Great idea to paint your own.

That would be fun to do but I'm not sure you could get me off the beach long enough to do it.
ReplyDeleteSounds like to have pottery lesson in such an exquisite place !
ReplyDeleteThe shot gives a nice overview of the craftwork. We went to Guiatil on our last two visits to CR. We particularly like the Oven Shop. Really nice people, fine quality work, fair prices.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great idea in theory Dave, but I've tried it with lets just say 'interesting' results haha!
ReplyDeleteSo cool and inviting!
