What is "terra sigillata"?
Terra sigillata is a type of fine, smooth pottery known for its polished, shiny surface. This technique involves applying a thin, liquid clay slip to the surface of pottery before it is fired. The slip, which contains very fine particles, is applied in multiple layers and then burnished to create a glossy finish. After the application, the pottery is fired in a kiln, resulting in a durable and attractive surface. Terra sigillata is often used for decorative pottery and can produce a rich, reflective surface that highlights the craftsmanship of the piece.
