"Creative Ceramics with Indigenous... " a Quíbor Travel Page by atufft

The Quibor designs are quite distinctive and easy to identify. When we lived in Saudi Arabia, we found a shop with Quibor ceramics. We have found a few shops in the USA with Quibor, and once we sold a several boxes of Quibor to some local shops. At the time we visited, we learned that some importers visit the town regularly to buy large lots on contract. Yet, Quibor remains largely unknown to most of the world. The most famous vessel shape from Quibor is the "tripode" or tripod, which, as the name implies, is a three legged vessel jar of sorts, and there's a monument in town to verify its importance. There however are a wide variety of other shapes and a multitude of sizes, and recently wood and stone carvers, furniture makers, and other artists have joined in the marketplace of Quibor products available there. Many of these are described in the tips in my Local Customs tips for Quibor.
