The Making of Perrin & Rowe Bathroomware - The English Tapware Company

Описание: PERRIN & ROWE BATHROOMWARE

Perrin & Rowe bathroomware production starts in their mould making workshop where they produce the master moulds to produce casting moulds to cast each of their original designs.

Casting moulds must absorb water and have a life expectancy about 100 castings. Casting moulds produce over scale size items designed to allow for 12% shrinkage during firing.
China clay slip is poured into the mould and left to set The item is carefully extracted from the mould and hand sponged.
The item is hand finished to perfect the design details. The completed item is then moved to the drying room.
A small highly skilled team of ten artisans carefully creates every item of Perrin & Rowe bathroomware.
Utmost care is taken with each individual piece to achieve an unrivalled result. After two days of drying, items are expertly glazed and loaded ready for the kiln. The kiln reaches a maximum temperature of 1195°C during the first 22 hour firing cycle. To achieve the perfect glaze for which Perrin & Rowe is renowned, pieces are fired up to three times. Running two kilns in parallel ensures a seamless production process.
Product is now perfectly finished and ready to grace the finest interiors.
