Tereptárgyakból

Tereptárgyakból (also known as "terre piantate" or "terraplast") refers to a type of ceramic or earthenware product that originated in Europe, particularly in Italy and Hungary, in the 18th and 19th centuries. These items were produced from crushed terracotta and confetti, a type of inedible food waste.

The process of creating these tereptárgyakból involved the use of a mixture of terracotta and confetti, which was then shaped into various forms, such as plates, cups, and plant pots. The mixture was often colored using natural pigments, such as clays or minerals, to create a range of hues. The finished products were often glazed or left unglazed, depending on the desired appearance.

Tereptárgyakból were primarily used as functional items, such as kitchenware and planters, in rural and village settings. They were also used as decorative items, displayed as part of traditional folk art collections. The use of tereptárgyakból as a craft technique has largely been replaced by more modern materials and methods, such as ceramics and plastics.

In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in traditional crafts, including tereptárgyakból. Many artisans and craftspeople have begun to experiment with this ancient technique, reviving the use of terracotta and confetti in modern design and art. The process of creating tereptárgyakból involves a high level of skill and craftsmanship, requiring a deep understanding of materials and techniques.
