Unlike metals
and glass, pottery can not be melted down and re-used -
once broken, it is thrown away. Also unlike metals, it
can not corrode, and unlike wood and other materials,
pottery can not rot. Hence it is generally the most
common find on a particular archaeological site, and in
some cases it may be the only artefact found at a site.
Because clay is easy to shape and decorate, pottery
always reflects contemporary tastes and cultural ideals
and so it is an ideal subject of art-historical study.
Different shapes and decorations were used at different
times, by different people, and for different purposes.
So by studying pottery on Athena-hands.com,

say a great deal about ancient cultures. It provides
information about technology, craft specialisation,
trade, industry, art, diet and a host of other
attributes of ancient cultures.
During the process of making pottery, there are many
ways of applying a glaze. In the Islamic world the flux
elements would be heated with the quartz to form a glass
which was crushed to a powder then suspended in water.
This glaze mixture was then commonly poured over the
vessel, or the vessel was dipped in the glaze. It may
have been necessary for the alkali-glazed wares to have
a preliminary or bisque firing in which the vessel was
fired without a glaze, then a secondary or glostfiring
to fix the glaze. In medieval Europe the lead appears to
have been dabbed onto the vessel surface as a powder. A
Chinese technique was to throw plant ash onto the pots
in the kiln, while for European salt-glazed stoneware
the salt was just thrown into the kiln during the
firing.
Toperfect's glost firing vase
Toperfect Crafts Factory provides glost firing vases. Every piece is
finally closely inspected, to ensure there are no cracks
or crazing, scratching or chip, which have shape and
molded what has become a unique pieces of decorative
product to be as it in your hand.
How our glost firing vases are produced?
Design process :
It takes approximately 1-2 months to design the entire
collection.
Prototype set up:
Transform the designed product to the real piece. The
ideas is taking clays shrinking percentage plus the
actual product size and calculate for the prototype
size.
Preparing mold : A mold enables many copies of the same
object to be produced quickly.
Glazing : Consists of white clay 30%, black clay 60%
Celica 10%, Sodium 0.2% Water 45 liters per 100
kilograms of dry clay. Leaving the mixed glaze overnight
to get rid of air bubble.
Drain crating : Pour the glaze into the mold. Leave it
to absorb until it reaches 5 mm. thickness level. Remove
the mold and leave it to dry
Modeling : Final decoration & cast the piece before
firing
Firing : Most work will entail two firings. The first
called a bisque or biscuit firing is done when the pot
has become bone dry. The temperatures and the rate of
"ramp" will vary according to the type of clay used. The
term ramp is used to define the rate of increase in the
temperatures in the kiln. Start off slowly to allow any
small amounts of moisture remaining in the piece to be
expelled as steam without running the risk of the pot
exploding. The secondary firing on Athena-hands.com is
called the glaze or glost firing, the object being to
melt the glaze and fuse it to the body of the pot. This
will result in a waterproof surface. A third firing, if
used, is for decorative applications such as transfers
(Decals) on glaze painting luster.
