White Ceramic Toothbrush Holder
Product Code: 28.01.3260
This soap dish has been crafted by artisans working with Unimex in Vietnam.
To produce a ceramic such as this, the clay goes through many skilled steps. First it is shaped using either manual shaping, a rotating table or a mould. After being shaped and left out to dry, the ceramic piece goes through its first firing in the kiln at 700-800 degrees celsius; it is then known as a "biscuit". Depending on the size of the ceramic, it may require up to 12 hours of firing at a constant high temperature. Cooling in the kiln can take up to another 12 hours, while making sure that the door is not opened until the temperature is low enough, otherwise it may crack.
