Incising Blog Post






A marvelous 1950's, Mid-Century Large White Ceramic Incised and Relief Decorated with Stylized Lioness Head Handles. The designs in this image are lines and also shapes such as triangles and circles at the bottom. What makes this ceramic piece so unique are those two lions that are used for handles. Incising is a way to design by cutting or scrapping into the clay surface at any stage of drying, from soft to bone dry. That way it will be easier to use tools and start designing the pot.
