Use a piece of clay of a length suitable for the body of the pot. Draw a circular lid and a piece of mud on the bottom of the pot. Roll the body into a cylindrical shape, then slowly beat it with a paddle to expand the pot belly and converge the upper or lower part into a cylindrical shape.

Then use the "ming needle" to scrape, trim, and process over and over again. , carefully crafted into a perfect work of art that meets creativity.
