The Marginea ceramics is a specific ceramic type for the Marginea village in Suceava County in Romania, Europe. It’s characterized by the black color acquired by the objects after burning – the result of the use of prehistoric technology, and by ornaments – the result of the use of specific techniques or the preservation of some traditional forms. It’s one of the old crafts that were still preserved to this day in Romania.
It is assumed that at Marginea, the art of pottery started more than 300 years ago. This beautiful craft is transmitted from father to son, it’s learned from an early age (7 -8 years) and apprenticeship lasts about 4 years.
Usually, boys are the ones who practice the job. The technological process lasts 3 weeks, from the moment of wheel modeling, decorating, drying and then burning of the items in the oven.
It should be noted that the black ceramics made in Marginea is unique in Europe. Another black ceramics center is found in South America, in Mexico.
The ceramics from Marginea appears as a result of using a production technology belonging to the Horodistea – Floresti culture (the most flourishing period of the Geto-Dacian black ceramics period).
In the 12th-15th centuries, pottery activity grew strongly in northern Moldova region and especially in Suceava because the potters used to make many dishes and other ceramic items for the monks from the monasteries scattered around the area.
Prior to the establishment of the communist regime in Romania, there were about 60 pottery workshops in Marginea. Then, during the communist years, the possession of a potter’s wheel was punished by law, and for this reason, many pottery masters gave up their inherited trade. Later, however, the communists were the same ones who tried to relaunch this activity through artisan cooperatives.
