{PORCELAIN} Each piece is hand crafted by Annemiek from porcelain clay, known for its exceptional strength and translucency. This strength allows for delicate, thin designs. Porcelain requires a high firing temperatures. I fire my pieces at least twice: one at a low temperature before applying glazes, and a second at high temperature for translucency and glazing. Third firings are for decals/transfers or gold lustre. Natural porcelain is white, but pigments or stains can be added for colour, which permeates the entire piece. Glaze or oxides are applied only to the surface.
{SHIPPING} All items come carefully wrapped, double boxed, a box in a box, with bubble wrap or other protective material for shipping. These are often recycled, to save the environment and on shipping costs.
