It seems everywhere in Arita that the preparation of pottery shop starts.

Alitala Porcelin Lab is currently preparing for acclaim!
I think that notifications will be delivered to some members soon.

Today I will introduce the state of the factory.

I am sticking a logo.

APL logo pasting work

This is a transfer called copper plate transfer.
STANDARD The logo behind the series is thus attached.
(Some of the top prints are also available.)

Place it on the tall grill of the unglazed wet with a small washi printed with a logo.

APL logo finish finished

It is fun to peel off the Japanese paper.

If you do not put glaze only on the logo part, apply chemical called chem stop.

Chemi stop coating starts

I turn around and turn it around to paint it deftly.

Chemi stop finish painting

Although it is beautiful blue, it will burn as it burns in the main kiln.

ChemStop pretty finished

I moved on board and moved to this place.

Shelf carrying

Arita's traditional technique? one of! Dishes racking.
It is one of the events of the townspeople 's sports festival, which I introduce many times in this blog.
Everyone is good!

Sour sauce glaze covered

I was glazed over soy sauce difference.
Some glazes are applied at once, but like the JAPAN series brush wrapped products apply glaze inside, and the outside brush rolls.

Sauce no sauce glaze difference

If glazing is applied only inside, use a pump like this.

Different soy sauce difference glaze Please turn to make it uniform.

Turn at high speed so that the glaze becomes uniform.
Spinning and turning makes the glaze uniform.

The bottom part is wiping the lower part of what is glazed all over.
Perhaps it is a German music track?

Wipe glaze without dripping soy sauce

When glaze is on the front, it will stick to the shelf board when baking in the main kiln.
Therefore I will wipe the glaze at the elevated part.

I call this a stripped plate.
Can you see that the yellow sponge below is dirty? That is a glaze.

Make sure you can take the last beautiful to the plate.

To the main kiln.

Carrying the plate to the main kiln

Ikemen in charge of the main kiln carries a plate.
Young people also be able to carry well in one year.

This kiln charge is one of the highlights because there are many tokens.

Please come to the headquarters factory of Alitala Porcelain Lab by all means Pottery City.
Even just a factory tour is okay.
