Гжель is a traditional Russian pottery style known for its distinctive blue and white designs. Originating from the village of the same name near Moscow, it has been produced since the 14th century. The pottery is often decorated with floral patterns, intricate motifs, and scenes from Russian folklore, making it popular both locally and internationally. The production of Гжель involves a unique clay that is rich in minerals, allowing for fine detailing and vibrant colors. Artisans use a special glazing technique that gives the pottery its glossy finish. Today, Гжель remains a symbol of Russian craftsmanship and cultural heritage, attracting collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.
