About (slip) application: since around 1900, the term 'slipware' has been applied specifically to slip-decorated ware. These are pots that have been coated in slip, have applied slip decoration, or a combination of both. The clay used for the slip is usually in a contrasting colour or colours to that of the ceramic body.

Slip decoration comprises a variety of techniques such as painting, trailing or 'jewelling' or inlaying into relief designs. By applying one or sometimes two coats of slip, the potter can decorate the pot in various ways. In the featured pot, its combing or feathering technique, meaning dragging a tool through the wet slip coats on the object.
