>>10834685>A condensed history about the production of “Tegle stein” in Norway. From the first introduction of fired clay bricks by monks in the early twelfth century. To what affects the Black Death had on production and innovation leading into the 17th century. The 1850’s became the golden time for brick production in Norway with new innovations and technics brought in from Germany. As with all golden times there always is a down turn. The end of the Second World War signaled the start of this down turn, with a slow attrition of the brickworks one by one over 90% were closed by 1970. The competition of cement, wood and other building products gave way to only one factory surviving and producing bricks and specialty products of “Tegle” in Norway today.I see you guys fell for the wood meme, although i have to say, you guys still make it look comfy.
