Nerikomi

Nerikomi, or layering, is a technique that involves adding coloured stains to clay, then forming designs using several or multiple colours. Each piece is initially flat, then is shaped using a mold. Finally a foot is attached using a pottery wheel. Most of my pieces are made using porcelain clay.

​

Each piece takes many hours to create and there are many opportunities for things to go wrong! However, it provides an opportunity to create beautiful and unique pieces.
