Detailing
Another set of workers work on the detailing of the form, removed from the mould.
There are different styles of detailing one of them is that they make a long tread of clay, which is stuck to the pot with the help of water. Different patterns are then made with the treads. To give different design patterns, the treads are then pressed against the pot with the help of fingers. To make the clay workable and to give a smooth finish little amount of water will be used while detailing. The design is still very rough and needs a lot of finishing.
Images show how the detailing is done by hand to achieve the final design.
