The paper investigates and reviewed the history of Malay pottery down to Kelantan pottery, and also analysed the techniques and processes used for mass production in Kelantan traditional pottery production. This was achieved by first visiting four traditional pottery centers in Kelantan. The places visited include; Mambong Pottery in Kampung Ulu Sungai, Zutah Ceramic in Ceribong, Kesdec Ceramics in Pulai Chondong and Belipot Ceramics in Bunut Payong.
