Mahmut Çalışkan, Serap Ereyli and İsmail Kaya founded İznik Mavi Çini in 2002 in order to revive the traditional Iznik ceramics, whose production was ended in the 18th century and was not restarted until 21st century, utilizing today’s technology.

Iznik ceramics are known in the world’s ceramic literature as the ceramic that is impossible to produce. With its constant R&D efforts and design prowess, our vision is to conserve these rare artifacts that started to be produced in the era associated with the Seljuks of Anatolia, to introduce them to new generations, and to transfer these artifacts to the next generations.
