Hi Priscilla , I enjoyed this post very much. Thank you for all the photos and links. It was neat to see Hans and Birgitte there with their pottery. I have only seen their work in books so it was nice to visit their website and it sparked my passion for salt glazing. (which I did for about 14 years.) I wrote a post about them on my blog today wondering about one of their techniques.

I haven't been to a craft market in Denmark. The quality and originality of the work you showed looks very high. (I originally trained as a potter ... many, many years ago.)
