About the Book ~
"In the field of ceramics, porcelain objects are considered the most beautiful and elegant. This elaborate book on porcelain is the first to show the craftsman how to work in this medium from start to finish.
The book begins with a discussion of the importance of the mold and gives sources for obtaining hundreds of exciting and different molds. Instructions are then given for preparing the porcelain slip, followed by the correct methods of pouring and of firing the pieces in the kiln.
There are a number of inspiring ways to decorate porcelain. Included here are sgraffito, jasperware simulation, flower making, lace draping, and coloring with china paints, metallic overglazes, lustres, and decals."
