About MeThe brightly coloured design on this porcelain gourd is produced by painting latex patches over a base glaze and then spraying a different coloured glaze over the pot before picking off the latex.

This gourd is very shiny due to the application of a very thin third glaze.

The brightly coloured glazes are based on 18th century Whieldon Ware.
