Dōbankami Technique
Dōbankami is a traditional Japanese technique used to transfer detailed patterns onto ceramics. It involves applying specially printed paper with copperplate designs onto the surface of the piece, ensuring precise and delicate motifs. This technique allows for the intricate reproduction of patterns like komon, which are often found in traditional Japanese textiles. While achieving a refined and uniform finish, it also preserves the artisanal charm of each piece.
