Transfer on two round forms with blue triangle motif and flowers, height 15 cm
To create a transfer is very similar to printing onto paper. However, in order for prints to be fired onto ceramics there are important differences in the printing mediums and colourants used. The decoration on these objects are from a self-made transfer in cobalt (the coloured triangles) combined with flower decoration. With some water the images stick to the object. The object is put in the electric kiln. In 5 hours the temperature of 800°C is reached and kept on that temperature for another hour. Thus the decoration is burned into the glazed pot. The kiln is switched off, and after cooling down the pot is ready.
