After letting the piece slowly dry to a \"leather-hard\" state, I refined the final shape on the wheel with a variety of pottery trimming tools. After another period of slow-drying over several days until the piece becomes \"bone dry,\" it was bisque-fired (a lower-temperature firing that allows me to handle the piece without it easily breaking, but still porous enough to absorb glaze for the final firing). The design was applied free-hand by meticulously taping the surface over many (many) hours. A ceramic glaze was applied to the taped surface, dried overnight, tape removed, glaze line edges refined, and a final cleanup on the foot and any other areas I didn't want glaze ...and then the piece was fired in a ceramic kiln to over 2,100F (1,100C).\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll of the materials I use are made in the US Midwest and are free of lead or any harmful chemicals. All pieces (even if not meant for food) are food-safe, dishwasher safe, and microwave safe ...though hand-washing is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThank you! - Mat\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mathew Arnold","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54261463318712,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0412\/5399\/4662\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_98bc2d7f-74ab-4169-ad0e-267b49edb903.jpg?v=1791327262","url":"https:\/\/mathewplayswithfire.com\/products\/tiny-line-cup-giveaway-winner","provider":"Mathew Arnold","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
