We are happy to introduce to you this unique collection of miniature clay houses made by Povești din Lut, which translates to stories from clay. Each house is meticulously handcrafted from natural clay and then fired in a wood-fired oven at over 1000 degrees. The houses are then painted and decorated by hand in a beautiful collection of colours and styles.
These houses capture the timeless beauty of traditional Romanian architecture in towns and villages across the country. They feature iconic steeply pitched roofs, intricately detailed windows, beautiful arched gates, all of which are brought to life in vibrant, hand painted colours.
Perfect as a unique decorative piece or as part of a larger collection, they are the perfect meaningful gift as these houses tell the story of craftsmanship and folklore. Bring a piece of Romania's magical history into your home - where every house tells a story shaped by hand, fired in clay and painted with love and respect.
Please note. Every house is slightly different as these are all one off pieces that are hand crafted, it must be noted that the photos are there to guide you, but individual aspects of the houses vary. The houses are grouped and sold according to the main colour.
