Hódmezővásárhely occupies a prominent place in the history of Hungarian ceramics. Thanks to the city's features, the people living here have been making ceramics for 7,000 years. The ceramic tradition of the 19th century people is worth highlighting, because it was then that the Vásárhely style of ceramics, which satisfied the needs of the peasants, was born, which is unique to this town.
Ceramics played a decisive role in the industrial and artistic life of Hódmezővásárhely in the past centuries, just as it does today. In the 19th century, small potters' workshops developed the folk ceramic tradition, for which plants and factories were also organized in the 20th century. Hódmezővásárhely was the largest pottery center in the country in the 19th century. By the 1820s, the characteristic pot shapes and decoration methods had developed in the local folk ceramics, and it was then that the pot types that spread throughout the Great Plain appeared for the first time. These include bait jugs, water bottles, bottles, jugs, butcher jars, miska jugs, mirror frames, glazed and scratched flower pots, and inkstands. In the second half of the 19th century, new types of vessels appear: flour bins, sewing baskets, shaping bowls. At that time, as a result of the increase in volume, the products of the Vásárhely potters reached all parts of the country, even beyond the border, through traders. From the increasingly colorful pots, three types of ceramic styles emerged within the city: the traditional yellow-green colored ones from Újváros, the yellowish-brownish-green ones from Tabán, and finally the cobalt blue colored ones on a white base at the top. The last heyday of ceramics satisfying peasant needs can be dated to the 1880s. less
