VASE, BIRD CAGE DESIGN, SATSUMA OR BELLEEK 
FIRST FIRE— Paint the entire vase with equal parts of 
Yellow luster and Orange luster, using a large square 
shader and plenty of garden lavender oil. 
Second fire — Divide the vase in four sections. (There are 
four bird cages on the vase). The design is carried out in 
Brown Enamel soft, except the bird and the little dark spots 
in the cage, these are made of Emerald Green Enamel hard. 
As the hard enamel requires a very much harder fire to de- 
velop it than the soft Brown Enamel, the Emerald Green En- 
amel should be floated on as thinly as possible. When applied 
in this way it will develop along with the Brown, which is 
floated on heavier. The reason for using the hard enamel in 
connection with the soft, is to produce a different texture for the 
bird and little green spots, which in this particular instance is 
desirable. A very similar effect, however, is obtained by using 
Bright Sea Green Enamel soft, for the bird and spots, and 
would perhaps be easier.
