Continuing from the trimming process, we now move on to putting our logo on the pottery. Additionally, we carefully trim the rim of the cup to refine its form and aesthetics.

Next, we proceed to stir the transparent glaze thoroughly and expertly apply it to the pottery. Even with transparent glazes, they can enhance the impression of the finished piece, bringing out its unique characteristics.

To conserve electricity and enhance thermal efficiency, we utilize innovative loading techniques in the kiln. Every inch of space is maximized, ensuring efficient firing and reducing energy consumption.

Finally, after an intricate firing process, our agateware pottery is complete. While there are always improvements to be made, these prototypes showcase our craftsmanship and dedication. Thank you for watching!
