Mervuntobra: a Czech-language field guide to clay, kilns, and the patience of drying

Field notes

The project follows ceramic work as a sequence of material states rather than presenting it as a generic craft introduction. It distinguishes wheel throwing from hand-building, describes three hand-building methods, and identifies uneven drying as a major cause of failure, with ordinary clay shrinkage given as roughly five to eight percent. Later sections cover glaze density, kiln loading, bisque firing, final firing, and the practical setting of an open workshop.
