Meet our friends at MANUFAKTURA
Janelle Imports’ exclusive line of Polish Stoneware is imported directly from MANUFAKTURA, a premier stoneware factory in Boleslawiec, Poland. Wieslaw Smolenski and Janusz Zwierz founded MANUFAKTURA in 1993 and continue to expand the operation and its artistic and creative offerings. Their previous careers included a combined 30 years at two of the oldest stoneware factories in Boleslawiec. Prior to the formation of MANUFAKTURA, they held executive level positions including President and Vice President.

Upon its inception, MANUFAKTURA employed 10 people, consisting of two entire families. Today, MANUFAKTURA has grown to 110 full-time employees who work together to continue this time-honored tradition of artistically crafted stoneware.

As a result of their passion for art and pottery, their products are of the highest quality, and are unique, beautiful, and always very functional. The choice of original design and colors is rich. They will continue to broaden their offering, while always staying true to the history and tradition of artistically crafted polish stoneware.
