   Let’s visit ceramics factory to see the magic of this art. The term ‘ceramic’ comes from the Greek word meaning ‘pottery’. Do you know that pottery has magic in it. Why? Because it comes from nature as a meeting of 3 elements: earth, water & fire. Earth and water are the raw materials, fire gives the objects colour and durability while human hearts and hands give them shape. Glay is the symbol of creativity, many myths describe it to be the material out of which the first men, plants and animals come to be.
