Ceramics are sold everywhere in touristic areas, but the small town of Avanos in Cappadocia is well known for its production and pottery masterpieces. Local artisans take clay from the nearby Red river and use it to make many beautiful ornaments and plates. Copper is especially traditional to the South East of Turkey where age-old techniques are still used to make objects. The most popular copper items are cooking utensils and jugs.
