We would like to show you a few steps in the birth of an ocarina |
| Different forms made out of gypsum |
 |
 |
The clay is pressed into the form |
| One half of the ocarina is ready |
 |
 |
The finished halfs are refined further |
| The joints are prepared |
 |
 |
Cream of clay is used as a glue |
| The two halfs are assembled |
 |
 |
After the final shaping the holes are cut out |
| Mouthpieces and holes get finished |
 |
 |
Every tone is electronically tuned |
| The holes are modified to correct the tune of the ocarina |
 |
 |
Ocarinas just before the baking |
| The making of our ocarinas takes about 30 steps. They differ from form to form. |
