In addition to traditional methods, Mariglen adds a unique, personal
touch to each creation, imbuing it with individuality. His work includes a
diverse range of items, such as cooking vessels, vases, cups, and other forms,
each bearing a distinct design. His pieces often feature motifs from nature,
including flowers, leaves, and elements that reflect the cultural heritage and
traditions of the region.
A central aspect of his craft is the preservation and promotion of the
pottery tradition, a skill that has been integral to the region for centuries
but is now at risk due to modern life’s rapid changes. Mariglen views his work
as a mission to safeguard the cultural identity of Peshkopia. In a town like
Peshkopia, he stands as a key figure, passionately and devotedly continuing to
offer the community the invaluable gift of artisanal craftsmanship, preserving
a vital part of their heritage.
