She creates each piece individually (no molds; only hand work) of a white porcelain clay. She hand molds each piece using only a knife, a bamboo skewer and a rolling pin for night lights and lamps. After drying, she paints the colors with paints made of ground minerals. She then bisque fires the pieces, paints accent colors and dips the finished pieces in a clear glaze before firing again to 2,200 degrees. Her work is lead free and nontoxic. Apparently, her work is / was being reproduced (2003) en masse in China - this item is NOT one of those composite reproductions Condition is pre-owned and as shown in photos some crazing may be present – see photos PLEASE SEE ALL PHOTOS SOLD AS FOUND AT ESTATE SALE IN NEW MEXICO The item is SOLD AS IS PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE BID OR PURCHASE Caveat emptor – What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) PLEASE don’t be afraid to ZOOM IN (cameras, phone cameras, computers all look at colors a bit differently.... so there may be a slight difference in what you view on your scene vs the item.)
