You know what I find interesting is one account with its history hidden swooping in to comment a helpful shop link on a pretty obvious bot post... And the link is to what is quite clearly the exact same item in the video, on an obscure, thrown together shop page.
Who can be certain these days? But, if you want my take - I'd say there are shenanigans afoot.
Kinda looks like one of those fake dropshipping product ads I sometimes see on Youtube.
A stolen video of craftsmen making a product with a hard cut at the end to a cheap trash product they try to sell.
I still have a strong desire for the second one... so pretty. Don't even care about what it's made of as long as it's touch safe cause I would be pondering that thing like an orb.
I assume you meant the flower, which looks to be some sort of metal. Probably the water cooling around it kept the temperature change lower, allowing it to keep shape.
Now if you're talking the rest of the decos then I have no idea what those are.
Ceramics are pretty resilient to thermal shock. There are multiple glazing techniques that involve rapid cooling in different liquids or sawdust and newspaper etc.
Jianzhen wares, though the result in the video is a cheap replica, which sells wells to foreigners, real jianzhen artists dont do stuff like that with too much ornaments, its more about the subtle glaze that vitrifies and refracts light in certain ways.
That golden flower wasn't even centered in the bowl on the video. I would have believed it if it was but aren't no way those guys are doing all this without checking if the flower is centered first.
The first half seems to be a raku style firing, where you put in some organic matter which interacts with the specific glaze to create unpredictable areas of iridescence or other patterns, switching between open air and closed firing to encourage different finishes iirc.
Would be much cooler to see some examples of those!
Good luck cleaning the intricate golden pattern we see in the bowl at the end of the video.
Although my opinion is that this is fake, they don't even place the flower correctly centered, they drop the liquid in ways that would move it further from it's position too, and there's no way the leaf stay in this position every time they add it by throwing it like they did.
Why do I have strong suspicion that those two are completely different bows
Yeah, and maybe filmed in two completely different countries.
But they used the same camera, right?
Yes, it looks different but bows is real, I gave this to my daughter-in-law last Christmas, since she likes Asian things and teas.
$35 is very suspect…..
That’s how drop shippers work.
At least it was watched on the same screen!

Localised entirely within 2 different kitchens
Can I see?
That’s impossible; the music never changed!
Because the first bowl is smooth and the second is beveled.
It sounds like you've never thrown a leaf into a hot bowl
While wearing flipflops!

Yep, they're like $15 on Amazon. Sad.

Because it became magically scalloped at the end?
I feel like this could be cheap plastic in the end

I know this is the point of the sub, but how does it not shatter with intense temperature shock?

Now if you're talking the rest of the decos then I have no idea what those are.
They’re 2 separate bowls. You can see the first one is smooth around the rim and the second one has ripples.

The dude at the very beginning is straight out of Elden Ring.
Then to the guy wearing safety flip flops.
Tea, Earl Grey, hot.
Not that hot.
This didn't feel like a tutorial to me
90% of the work was done before it went in the kiln
Pretty sure this was a demonstration, not a tutorial.

This isn't meant to be a tutorial though? This is just showing part of the process of making these, and then showing what the final result looks like
You can find these at Walmart. $25.
That must be hell to clean
What's up with the stupid cheesy music?
You want more cheeze?
Am I the only one that thinks the finished product is ugly and gaudy?
At least the second group of bowl-smythes is playing it safe with OSHA-approved flip-flops.
Iridium bowl
Shit I really want one
Doing this type of stuff with damn flip flops 🩴 is wild !
That looks really cool. Anyone know if these are food grade and if so where can I get one?
