  • The lump of clay is kept on the potter’s wheel

  • With gentle and cautious hand movements, the circumference of the vessel is formed

  • Continuous spinning of the wheel enables perforating and forming a circular shape

  • The depth is given by gently pushing the hands inside the vessel

  • The artisan concurrently shapes the rim and the base of the vessel

  • A strong hand-eye correlation is required to excel in this skill

  • Cautiously the potter starts to shape the vessel

  • The vessel is smoothened with soft hands simultaneously

  • The extra material is scooped out lightly so the base is not disturbed

  • The vessel is again checked for faults after completion

  • The vessels are left to dry naturally

  • The lip of the pot is smoothened to remove finger intends
