Pictures from the factory in Nieuw-Buinen.

 

These pictures were taken while the factory was closed for the annual summer holiday.

We are extremely grateful to Royal Goedewaagen.

In particular to our friend Friggo Visser (Conservator of the Goedewaagen Ceramics Museum) for opening up the factory especially for us and our friends Joop & Ria Nobel.

You can go to Royal Goedewaagen if you are visiting Holland - well worth a visit!

See their websites here and here.
