Latvian pottery

Latvian pottery (''Latvijas keramika'' or ''Latvijas podniecība''), one of the country's oldest art forms, dates back to the Neolithic. Latgale pottery (''Latgales keramika'') is the most well-known subset of Latvian pottery. The eastern region of Latgale is the most prolific producer of wares.
As a rule, Latvian pottery is characterized by an absence of any painted-on patterns or designs, instead solid colors and gradients are used. Traditionally subdued, earthen hues (greens, browns, etc.) are used; however, artisans can be seen using brighter colors in their unique pieces. Mottled glaze and random artifacts (somewhat reminiscent of the Japanese Shino-yaki) are characteristic of Latvian pottery.
==Prehistoric period==

The Neolithic Pit–Comb Ware culture ( Comb Ceramic culture) that spanned the entire territory of modern-day Latvia derives its name from the pottery characteristic of the time – wares decorated with impressions of a comb-like object. Narva culture spanning the entire territory of modern day Estonia and Latvia, as well as parts of Lithuania and Western Russia, is a subset of the larger Pit–Comb Ware culture.
Pit–Comb Ware culture is usually thought to have used an early form of what are today known as the Uralic languages, a competing view is that they may have been speakers of a Paleo-European language.〔James P. Mallory and Douglas Q. Adams, "Pit-Comb Ware Culture", in ''Encyclopedia of Indo-European Culture'',( Fitzroy Dearborn, 1997), pp. 429–30.〕
