Dan has really outdone himself this time.

Here are two examples of handmade discs by master tile maker, Dan Chrynko. Top disc has a sandstone body with a mishima white porcelain slip for an etched inlay design look. Second Disc, is an example of same mishima technique, used as above, but this disc is white porcelain body with a dark colored slip used for inlay design. All of this is covered with watercolor design of high-fired colored glaze for background coloring. These discs may also be inserted into mosaic background.
