Interesting, I haven't seen the polishing step, surely something to do on the next visit. The color you see on the final teapot is not paint, the painting is only a guide for the carver. The carved parts are filled with colored clay, that means you have a much thicker layer of color than if it was paint, and polishing should not affect the shape of the decorations visibly.
Thanks for the subtitles, they are pretty handy! :D
you're welcome！
just amazing how much effort and love it's given. pure art.

Any footage of them polishing them? I'm especially curious about how they polish the painted ones without damaging the designs.
