Questions About Black Clay
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Black clay is called barro negro pottery. It is a form of pottery from Oaxaca, Mexico and is characterized by its color and unique patterns. The process was discovered by Doña Rosa in the 1950s, who added a polish to her pottery before firing it to obtain its matte black finish. Shop a collection of black clay pottery from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    No, the black clay pottery from Mexico is usually considered stoneware, not earthenware. While the two types of pottery seem similar, stoneware is fired at a much higher temperature than earthenware. You can find a large selection of black clay pottery on 1stDibs.
