The colour of the clay is natural and it is given by the mixture of clay and stone powder from the same region. The pieces are burnished, this is an ancient technique which is about polishing the pieces with a hard stone like quartz, this process closes the pores of the clay making it watertight and creates a unique shine and soft texture without any glaze added. To create a special and vibrant colour as well as unique shine the pieces are showered in liquid beeswax, creating a very thin cover that penetrates the first layers of the clay.Decorative incense holder wild clay beeswax finish natural colour claySize.6 x 6 cmImportantAs a natural product and handmade, the pieces will present variations in shape and colour as part of its beauty and unique creation details.
