TS European

TS European Flower Pots are made in Europe, close to home, and that shows. The range is lively and stylish. This diverse range consists of attractive series, made from the best ceramics. The different designs offer you as a retailer enough choice to create your own collection. Every six months, we present new series and colours.

Made in Holland

Part of Ter Steege's European range is Made in Holland. For example, the Sven and Sytse series. These series have a North European soul, solid and modern. Because these pots come from a factory line, as a retailer you know exactly what to expect. We see clean lines with a smooth matte finish, alternated with fashionable colours and graphic textures.

Traditional handmade flower pots of ceramics

Most of our TS European series are traditionally hand turned by experienced craftsmen in Europe. Our cooperation with these craftsmen is based on years of mutual trust and respect. The choice for beautiful durable materials and favourable working conditions is a focus for both parties. As far as we are concerned, this is the starting point for a stylish and honest product of high quality.

How are these rustic flower pots made?

Large quantities of clay are extracted by a special machine to extract the air. From the machine comes a kind of sausage made of clay, which is cut into pieces. Each piece of clay is modelled by hand on a traditional turning mechanism, until the right model of flowerpot is produced. A stick indicates the correct height of the pot. In this traditional process, small differences in size can occur. That is the charm of our collection, it creates authentic flower pots, with a unique character.

Give structure to a flowerpot

Now that the base of the national flowerpot is ready, another specialist takes care of the structure of the pot. There is a different tool for each structure. In the Karlijn series this is a special carving tool. With a Cresta flowerpot it is the paint pattern that gives the pot its unique character.

Baking and colouring of handmade flower pots

If the pots have the right shape and structure then they are ready for the oven. Once baked they come out of the oven in an orange colour, the characteristic terracotta colour. From the oven, the pots cool down quietly and are sprayed in the desired colour. This spraying is again done manually, which gives each pot its own colour pattern.
