Making Ollas root watering pots | Pottery Studio vlog 25 | for Chateau Unwrapped |
Like many others, I am a fan of the joyful RU-vid called Chateau Diaries.
They also produce a weekly program Chateau Unwrapped. They open the gifts so courteous and merry as only the British can. This channels, all the proceeds are donated to a worthy cause each month. I, too, wanted to be part of it! It was tough to come up with what they needed.
I finally figured out that I could make these Olla pots for them. Chateau Lalande has a lovely walled garden where irrigation systems can be used.

I aim to inspire potters to use low-fired local earthenware clays. So now, as we have a lockdown in Helsinki again and I have time in my hands. I will show how to do some products where the local clay is best. I don’t make Olla´s for commercial purposes; I did these only for this video.
UDUMBARA pottery (est. 1994) products Tea bowls, lamps, sculptures, and planters are made by hand and pottery wheel from wild, local clay from the small village of Kultela in Somero, Southwestern Finland. www.kultelantiiliputki.com/
The material gives the products a wonderfully rich earthy character. I want to emphasize the unique and ecological value of local clay by choosing this local raw material.

This is where some of the Oiyas (Ollas) I made last spring went. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cOT9NpVfspA.html

Beautiful gifts, Eva!💝

@DabblinDawn 11 месяцев назад

Fantastic video! Throwing with a highly grogged clay is tough- I admire your skill and ability to do so and still have skin on your hands! 😂 Thanks for demonstrating the two part olla process! Also, nice tip on the speed of the wheel being faster lower down and slower higher up. 😀 I’m part Finnish so it’s nice to see your channel. I’m subbing!❤

@UDUMBARA_Helsinki 11 месяцев назад

Thank you 😊, I am happy if my videos are useful ❣️🪴

@Arkine13 2 года назад

I haven't thrown anything on a wheel in...30 years?! And I probably wasn't very good at it. LOL But, I need to make some of these--I'm sure it'll take me a few dozen tries, or more. Nice to see the process. Thanks for posting!

@UDUMBARA_Helsinki 2 года назад

Thank You. 😂 Yes, it takes a long time and patience to learn to throw, but If I did anyone can! You can make Ollas from ready-made flowerpots too, just glue them together .....if you don’t want to spend time learning the wheel.😀

@Arkine13 2 года назад

@@UDUMBARA_Helsinki Yeah, I saw a couple of videos with people gluing them together, which would work, but the cost if you're doing a lot of them is quite a bit. I can buy 50 lbs of clay for about $27, where as the pots (unless you can find them used) cost about $7 each. I'm also building my own kiln which will serve a secondary purpose as a paper burner and ash for compost/soil rejuvenation. ;)

@DabblinDawn 11 месяцев назад

@@Arkine13 😯omgosh! What clay and from where are you getting 50lbs for that price? 🪴

Hi from Birmingham, Alabama ! Usa. I saw your gifts to the LaLanders & loved them. I'm sorry but they are just too pretty to cover with dirt! I love throwing clay but really suck at it! please make more videos - the music fit it perfectly. I'm a big fan of all the chateau vlogs in France. Thank you, Linda 🧚

@UDUMBARA_Helsinki 2 года назад

Hej Linda and Thank you so much! It is fantastic how LaLanders connect people all around this globe 🌎! It is so much fun to follow them. I like their vlogs much more than any tv shows. Thank You for contacting!😊

Greetings from Ghana! Very inspiring! Hope to find the right clay here to experiment with this for our permaculture garden raised beds! Olla!

@UDUMBARA_Helsinki 5 месяцев назад

Wau! If you come across a brick factory, you might be able to obtain clay from there. O, consider reaching out to a local potter; they (maybe) can make Ollas for you. Thank you for your warm greetings❣

@juliest-francois8874 10 месяцев назад

Hello from Canada! I just found your channel this morning. I'm loving it! I was wondering what the company of your wheels are. I'm new to pottery and was wondering if you could recommend a beginner wheel? Thank you

@UDUMBARA_Helsinki 10 месяцев назад

Hello! Thank You very much. I work mostly with Shimpo ( Nidec) RK-55. It is perfect for learning. And I still like using it even though I have done pottery for 40 years. There is no need to buy wheels with big motors. Throwing pottery is a technique. This is the wheel I use with my students, too. It is a good way to learn to listen to the clay and not use too much physical power. All the best!

Hi! Greetings all the way to Califonia❣

@nancyw8866 10 месяцев назад

Do you leave the Olla in the ground in the winter? We've been discussing this in my class. We're in Canada and can go to -30C. Any chance of breaking? Thanks for your video

@UDUMBARA_Helsinki 10 месяцев назад

Yes, it can break, and I would not. If there is water inside and freezes, it will break (as water expands when it freezes). Also, the frost expands the ground, too. Here in Finland, you can see how the frost breaks the roads every winter. It must be the same in Canada. All the best and thank you for watching🪴😘!

I have a nonfired or low fired native pot that is suddenly falling apart. How do I save it? Water seems to make it worse. 🤨

@UDUMBARA_Helsinki 2 года назад

If it is nonfired it will turn to sand if you use water on it and if it is a valuable pot, you should contact a ceramic restorer, restoration goes over my expertise. Hope you can save it.
