he Production of Porcelain Objects

Clay : The clay is composed of roughly 50% kaolin, 25% quartz and 25% feldspath. An original mold is used to produce plaster molds.



Molding : The process varies depending on the type of object to be created. The "calibrage" is a technique used for round objects (plates, platters). A semi-soft disk of clay is placed on a mold which is in turn placed on a wheel where it is spun.

Pouring : This technique is used for hollow objects such as vases or teapots. Liquid clay, or slip, is poured into a hollow plaster mold. The texture of the plaster allows the clay to fix on the walls of the mold. After drying, the mold is removed.

Pressing : A dry clay is injected under pressure into the mold

Firing : After drying and finishing, the object is first fired at 980° to eliminate any water. This phase is called the bisque firing. Next the object is dipped in a liquid glaze bath. The piece is then fired a second time at 1400°, causing it to shrink by about 15%. At the end of this process, the final product is white, translucid, waterproof and produces a characteristic high-pitched tone when tapped.

Decoration : Although porcelain can be decorated in many ways, Laure Selignac has chosen to practice only the purest and most traditional method: hand painting.
