Have you tried coiling? #potterythrowdown | The Great Pottery Throw Down

Mrs Konate is back, this time coiling and making even bigger pots. In this video, watch her prep the hardened wall by scraping it, then twist “sausages” of clay onto the wall to both compress and build it up for a flaring rim. More compression follows with a rib and wet cloth. Mrs Konate hails from the village of Ouri in Burkina Faso. This clip is taken from a long video titled “African Pottery Forming and Firing” by Christopher D. Roy, who narrates. Watch the entire video https://www.youtube.co
