potteries
Where clay transforms
Potteries is the plural of pottery, referring to multiple workshops or factories where ceramic goods are made, or to collections of ceramic objects themselves.
A region might be known for its potteries, meaning its ceramic-producing establishments: The ancient potteries of this valley produced distinctive red-glazed vessels. (Capitalized Potteries refers to the ceramic-manufacturing region in England.)
