@l8loomer Bruh this is definitely not what I originally set out to make! I was trying to build a vase with a hole through the center, but I fell asleep and let the clay dry out way too much. 😭 Instead of scrapping it, I figured, why not use it to practice my carving? Let me know what you guys think of the details! #pottery #potterylove #potteryart #ceramics #potterystudio

Pottery making process start to finishfrom @l8loomer

[01]

Overview

The creator documents the process of making a large ceramic vase. He starts by holding a large lump of clay, then throws it onto a pottery wheel, skillfully pulling and shaping it into a tall vessel. The video then transitions to show the creator meticulously carving an intricate, wavy, topographic-like pattern into the surface of the leather-hard vase before brushing it clean to reveal the final, detailed piece.
