Gzhel Cup & Saucer

As all traditional Gzhel items, these cup and saucer were first created in plaster forms cast from liquid porcelain mass. After the first burning the forms were painted with cobalt while keeping the background white. Then the painting was covered with glaze. Glaze fused and made the surface of the work glassy, giving cobalt its blue color. Cup size: 4.7x3.9x3.1 inches (12x10x8 cm). Saucer diameter: 5.9 inches (15 cm).
