| How
we do it.
Painting and firing :
We use overglaze
paints which to be fired at 750 - 850 degrees Celsius
for permanent finish. The lead content paints are used
for decoration purpose, but lead-free paints are for
food-container painting. Overglazes are in powder, which need
to mix with medium. The paints are slightly applied in layers.
Each layer has to be fired in kiln 750 -850 degrees Celsius,
then the shade will be about 15-20% lighter. Therefore, to
create depth and 3-dimensional look in realistic painting
style like portraiture needs serveral layers of painting and
firing. We cannot load thick paints otherwise the paint will
run in firing process and spoil the work. In addition,
different colors need different temperatures, i.e. red and
violet could not be fired at the same time. Normally, we
fire porcelain two to four times to get the required value,
or five to six times for portrait.

Pricing
:
The hand-painted
decoration is mainly labor-oriented artwork, which consume
much time to complete with three-dimensional look or strong
color, and depending on the complexity and intricacy of the
patterns. Therefore, we estimate painting commission from
the time consumed for each project, then adding white ware,
paints, and firing cost. Shipping expense is subject to the
distance to destination. The client will absorb the shipping
and insurance expenses.
