used. The pots are now in the biscuit stage after the firing and can
be painted. Suitable designs are worked out and brush strokes prac-
tised before the painting on the jugs with glazes, and majolica glaze,
are done. It takes three firings often before the pots are finished and
ready for use, and although the results at first may appear simple,

this complicated procedure has taken place to achieve them.
