Moulding<\/h1>

First the coloured earth is either thrown on a wheel or pressed by hand on plaster moulds.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Firing the biscuit<\/strong><\/h1>

After drying for several days, the wares are then reworked to obtain a perfect finish.
Then they are fired at 1020\u00b0C. Once fired for the first time, the terracotta is known as \u2018biscuit\u2019.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Decorating raw enamel<\/strong><\/h1>

Then comes the delicate, decoration stage.
Oxides, which are immediately absorbed, are applied to the piece using a paintbrush.
As a consequence, there is no room for error.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u2018<\/strong>Grand\u00a0feu\u2019<\/i><\/strong> (high temperature firing)<\/strong><\/h1>

The piece is fired a second time at 960\u00b0C (the technique, known as \u2018grand\u00a0feu\u2019<\/i>, was used by the great masters in the past), ensuring the brilliance of the enamel and the colours, and a perfect finish.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
