Al Ali Pottery

We went to Hamad Town to see the pottery shops. We saw tons and tons of pottery. It looks very different from what they make in Japan. Some I really liked some was just weird. Much of it they use as decorations in and on their homes. The smaller cut out ones they use to burn incense in. I managed to get out of there with only one piece but it was kind of big. You'll find a picture of it at the bottom of this post.

We see many translation mistakes similar to the ones we saw in Japan.

Inside of Al Ali Bottery Shop

Outside the pottery shops and kilns there were huge piles of broken pottery. Apparently they make a lot of pottery that never sales.
