Material

Our raw material begins with carefully selected red clay, meticulously sorted to remove any impurities such as stones and other elements. This refined clay is then blended with specialized sand to create a composition that meets our exacting standards. This meticulous process ensures that our products start with the highest quality materials, setting the foundation for the craftsmanship and excellence that define our brand.”

Shaping & Triming

After the raw materials have been meticulously sorted, the next crucial stage is the core formation process where they are shaped into various vase and pot creations. This process heavily relies on the skill and expertise of our artisans, and is carried out entirely by hand. Precision and accuracy are paramount during this stage, as we strive to minimize any significant variations that may affect products with the same model. Our commitment to meticulous craftsmanship ensures consistency and quality across our range of products.”

After shaping and drying slightly, the product will be trimmed to ensure smooth surfaces that are safe to handle.

Drying process

Next, the process is drying. The drying process is done naturally using a gradual drying technique with natural weather conditions. This process is crucial to ensure the gradual reduction of moisture content before the firing process, which is slower and more thorough, to avoid cracking during firing.

Firing

Quality Control

Shape conformity

Defect Check

Shape Conformity control process is to ensure the conformity of shapes. This involves meticulously inspecting each ceramic item to ensure it matches the intended design and specifications. We carefully examine the dimensions, contours, and overall shape of the product to verify that it meets our standards for consistency and precision. It's important to note that we allow a tolerance deviation of 1-2 cm to accommodate minor variations in handmade products.

The second QC process, known as "Defect Check," involves thoroughly examining each ceramic item to identify any cracks, chips, or imperfections. This ensures only flawless products meet our quality standards before being packaged and shipped to customers.

Finishing

Finishing process involves applying high-quality paint using various types, methods, and techniques, including polishing, washing, firing, and others according to the desired design. This step aims to provide color, shine, and additional protection to ceramic products, ensuring quality and aesthetic appeal.

After applying the paint finishing, we conduct a final QC to ensure color consistency before proceeding with the installation of scratch-resistant queue rubber at the bottom of the vase for furniture protection, and queue slip vase to maintain stability
