Traditional Westerwald stoneware is a type of ceramic ware that was produced in the lower Westerwald and the Kannenbäckerland in the early modern period. Since the 17th century, it has been one of the dominant types of German stoneware. The technique for producing grey stoneware with cobalt blue painting proved to be particularly pioneering. So-called blue-grey ware.
Refractory clay has a uniformly fine grain. The low iron content means that the clay fires to a light grey body.
In the second half of the 19th century, a new technique made it possible to upturn the jars in plaster moulds, making it easier to produce large quantities of stoneware pots.
The cool stoneware jars were used to store food such as sauerkraut or yeast dough.
