This type of clay is sifted until it becomes a very fine sand, then, water is added to form a very soft, smooth, and malleable paste. It is with this clay paste that the molding of the pieces begins, using a wheel, from which vases, flower pots, and other creations come to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter a piece is molded, it is left outside to dry for two to three days, being exposed directly to the sunlight for any humidity to evaporate. The pieces are then put through the first firing, with temperatures up to 1652 Fº degrees for timespans that range from 5 to 6 hours. Once the pieces cool down, the most laborious and artistic part of the process starts, a decoration process with the most fantastic designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery piece is painted with brushes made by the artisan himself using dog fur. Once the pieces are completely painted, they are then submerged in an enamel giving the piece a glossy finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is then that the piece is fired again in the oven, reaching roughly 212 Fº degrees for eight hours. During this process, as if through magic, colors start to appear. As an end result, painted designs shimmer with a very special brightness, while also allowing the piece to be freed from any lead content.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHaving precise control of temperatures is very important.

This type of clay is sifted until it becomes a very fine sand, then, water is added to form a very soft, smooth, and malleable paste. It is with this clay paste that the molding of the pieces begins, using a wheel, from which vases, flower pots, and other creations come to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter a piece is molded, it is left outside to dry for two to three days, being exposed directly to the sunlight for any humidity to evaporate. The pieces are then put through the first firing, with temperatures up to 1652 Fº degrees for timespans that range from 5 to 6 hours. Once the pieces cool down, the most laborious and artistic part of the process starts, a decoration process with the most fantastic designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery piece is painted with brushes made by the artisan himself using dog fur. Once the pieces are completely painted, they are then submerged in an enamel giving the piece a glossy finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is then that the piece is fired again in the oven, reaching roughly 212 Fº degrees for eight hours. During this process, as if through magic, colors start to appear. As an end result, painted designs shimmer with a very special brightness, while also allowing the piece to be freed from any lead content.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHaving precise control of temperatures is very important.

This type of clay is sifted until it becomes a very fine sand, then, water is added to form a very soft, smooth, and malleable paste. It is with this clay paste that the molding of the pieces begins, using a wheel, from which vases, flower pots, and other creations come to be.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAfter a piece is molded, it is left outside to dry for two to three days, being exposed directly to the sunlight for any humidity to evaporate.
