		In 1970, just as Troika was beginning to enjoy the fruits of its long road to recognition, the St. Ives Council terminated their lease on the Wheal Dream pottery.

	Troika : Perfect Pieces
		While Troika have become best known for their rough, textured wares, their output was in truth split between these pieces and their glazed wares.
		The Troika story had to come to an end, perhaps at least in part as a result of the original founders drifting apart over the years, coupled with the British recession of the late 70s and early 80s.
		However, Troika's legacy of creativity lives on today, with a strong UK collectors market and a high profile as an antique of the future.

	Troika (pottery) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Troika was an art pottery operating in Cornwall from 1963 to 1983.
		Sirota and Illsley were the creative force behind Troika and wanted to pursue their vision of pottery as art, without regard to function.
		This ran counter to much of the studio pottery movement at the time, as epitomised by the work of Bernard Leach, and so Troika were something of a shock to the establishment.

		Troika pottery has nothing to do with Russia, although clearly the trio who founded the company in 1963 chose the name for its Russian meaning of the triumvirate of three equal partners.
		Confounding the cynics, Troika pottery was turning a handsome profit within a year and was soon a leading light among producers of contemporary ceramics in an industry made famous by such potters as Bernard Leach, W. Staite Murray and Lucie Rie.
		Among the former is a Troika large white cube pot made for the Heal's and Liberty exhibition of 1968.

		It is clear that this 're-discovery' was made by John Dwight, founder of the Fulham Pottery.
		Traditionally, European stoneware was salt-glazed: common salt (NaCl) was thrown into the kiln, where it reacted with water to form hydrogen chloride gas and sodium hydroxide, the latter reacting with silica in the clay to form a layer of sodium silicate.
		Crazing is less likely if the pottery is skilled enough to use a body and glaze with similar thermal expansion coefficients (i.e., which move in harmony when they are warmed up or cooled down).
