PROCESS OF A STORY TIME OF SICILY ESSENTIAL LINE IN BRIEF


Clay, water and fire are the materials with which man gives birth to the first object of use of history, that object which replaces the primordial act of joining hands to hold. His innate malleability makes the ceramic material versatile to transformations, satisfying the human need in the course of history. This aspect makes its link with the man go beyond all limits of time, becoming indispensable in daily life. The production of ceramics in Caltagirone is linked to the history of the city. For many centuries, generations of craftsmen have stood for the passion in the making of this extraordinary material, and have gained the know-how that makes the ceramics of Caltagirone exclusive items, of high quality and elegance.


PROCESS OF A STORY


FORMING

The shaping of the clay occurs through the manipulation of the material. There are several techniques that combine the craftsmanship and creativity of the artisan with the use of specific instruments of support.

DRYING AND FIRST FIRING

The drying allows the object to reach the stage of partial dryness referred to as “leatherhard”,losing the residual moisture and losing the flexibility. The object will then be ready for the first firing (or bisque firing) at a temperature of about 1000 ° C.

GLAZING

Has the function to create a layer on which to apply the decoration. It is obtained through immersion (the workpiece is immersed in the liquid glaze for a few seconds) or spray (allows you to glaze the object using a sprayer).


DECORATION

The expert hand and the light strokes of the artisan will at this point decorate the glaze and contribute to the many decorative styles that characterize the Caltagirone tradition;

SECOND FIRING

THIRD FIRING

This phase includes a second cooking cycle at a temperature of about 920 ° C., During which the glaze, acquires gloss and water resistance, and the colors become bright and shiny.

Sophisticated decorative technique, which, through a heat treatment, allows the formation of a metal film (gold, silver, metallic luster). The effect, which is obtained in the third cooking, is made ​thanks to the light that refracts on the metal particles present on the glass layer of the artifacts.
