Estefania Padilla made a black and white stoneware plate using the slab technique. She then brushed it with beige clay to create a deliberately irregular layer. The ceramicist wanted to create a distinctive texture, as the stoneware's natural colour appeared in the areas with less engobe. Finally, she sgraffitoed the plate, removing the white clay to reveal the striking black colour of the stoneware underneath. This process allowed her to add an intricate irregular pattern of curved and straight lines to the piece.
