Pottery.

A bonus of £250 for £1,000 worth of earthenware was offered in 1881, and gained by a Dunedin pottery company.

The success of the pottery works that have been established at Tokomairiro, also at Christchurch and other places, has proved the adaptability of the fireclays and pottery clays of the colony for the best kinds of firebricks, drain-pipes, chimney-pots, tiles, and all kinds of pottery, porcelain, and terra-cotta goods.
