Note:
Sabin Industries, founded by Samuel Sabin in 1946, did not manufacture china, but it decorated “blanks” (i.e., undecorated pieces of china) purchased from ceramics companies that made the actual pottery and porcelain.

Sabin applied decoration to these blanks — often by using decals — and then resold them to a variety of wholesalers or retailers.

It is reported that Sabin also decorated glass. To use this decal, the area to be decorated is covered with “size,” a gelatinous substance made from glue, wax or clay.

Next, the paper decal is positioned on the item to be decorated and it adheres to the size.

When the piece of ceramic is fired in the kiln, the paper burns away and the decoration becomes permanently incorporated into the glaze.
