Yes, everything at this vase factory was THIS amazing.
The pieces thrown and attached for some really massive wear.  
The kiln for the monster pots.
A chinese worker artist attaching a planter together.  They attach these pieces bone dry with thick slip mixed with around five percent glaze so it really sticks well when firing.

Makin a real big section.
Going to this factory excited and inspired me to make some big pots.  I cant wait to try some similar methods for big pots here in Jingdezhen.
