This magnificent pattern is outlined and embellished with reliefs by hand, using a special ceramic paste, then fired to fuse it to the black groundlay - this is just one of up to eight firings. The piece is glazed before each of the raised embellishments (an astonishing 1,160 on a 27cm plate) is individually coated with pure gold.
