THE PROCESSING PHASES
We certify that each product is entirely handmade and that any "small imperfections" are typical of artisanal workmanship, which is more valuable than industrial production.
Our artisans craft each piece with care. Oven temperatures, raw materials used, and seasonality may influence slight variations in hue or detail. Each creation is unique; in fact, no two pieces are identical.
The clay is worked with the lathe manually giving the desired shape.
A drying time that allows the water contained in the clay to evaporate.
It will last approximately 12 hours, bringing the objects to a temperature between 980/1000 C°.
Immersion in a solution of enamel powder and water then decorated with skill.
It will last 8/10 hours at a temperature of 920/950 C° with a cooling time of 18 hours.
In some special cases, for the application of real gold or 12% platinum, a "third fire" is required.
