All ceramic plates begin with clay. Initially, the clay is molded in a flat plate form. Next the artist will place the shaped clay into a special oven called a kiln. The kiln is extremely hot and works to harden the clay similar to stone. Which is big deal because it treats the clay well enough that you can use it as a sturdy plate. It takes a lot of time and practice to shape the clay in such a way that you get a perfect plate. The artists at Weiert Ceramics have come to masterfully fashion the clay with gentleness and precision. Using their hands and some specific tools to design the plates. It is like sculpting a work of art!

Traditional techniques for crafting durable and unique ceramic plates

The artist at Weiert Ceramics relies on tradition combined with technique developed over centuries. However, one way you can do that is by using the spinning wheel. The potter's wheel is a traditional and essential tool used in creating pottery. When they put the clay on a spinning wheel it starts to spin, and then an artist creates it into a plate. Once you get the clay all formed, it has to set for a few days. It so important this time to dry because it also keeps the plate in shape. After drying well the clay goes into a hot oven for firing. Firing is the process in which this occurs. During the kiln firing, the clay will turn hard and strong. It also modifies the clay color, imparting a unique appearance to each plate. Weiert Ceramics artists add special glazes after firing. We have colorful glazes pouring on them which serve to decorate the plates and give texture.

Process Step 4 : Glazing the Plate — Once it has been fired for the first time, to be glazed with finishing touch. Artists then use specialized, glazed finishes to colour the plate and provide a texture.
