The temperature carefully monitored. After it has cooled down. The design is hand drawn onto the vase. Then etched into the vase. A technique known as “sgraffitto”.  Then hand painted prior to the final firing. Because of this, the production process takes 5 – 6 working days to complete. Due to the hand painting process.
