PORCELAIN VERSUS FLUMO


dolls created in porcelain
poured slip in plaster molds
and fired in a kiln many times


Flumo dolls
air dry slip poured in plaster molds 
air dried and painted
also called cold porcelain
has a heavier feel



same mold
 like how the doll shrinks in porcelain
so tiny


I collect both types of dolls and have used both medias
do love the Flumo
but nothing feels like porcelain
