...Some Cultural Outings

After visiting a cloisonné factory, a silk comforter factory and many others in China, I got the chance to go visit the Figgjo Porcelain factory just outside Stavanger with the PWC (formerly known as ‘Petroleum Women Club’ and now by the more politically correct ‘People Who Connect’ –basically a club for us, Trailing Spouse (woman or man!) to meet). The visit was pleasant and a welcome break of daily routines (every little help!)

It all starts with a little bit of clay (Kaolin) and ends up a plate, cup or vase. I n between you need molding, polishing, manual labor, glazing, firing, screen printing or hand painting.
