The ware making starts from cutting its base from the preformed slab. Then clay is hand formed into uniformed coils, which are pressed together one by one starting from the base creating the design. Coils are finger or steak slipped with each other as it was described in slab technique. It is important to press coils together before slipping.

Literally any form and design can be sculptured by coil technique. This technique is essential for giant ware making, where wheel is too small to use.
