- Coiling: Rolling out long, snake-like coils of clay and stacking or spiraling them to build vessels like pots, vases, or even sculptural pieces.
- Slab Building: Rolling out flat sheets of clay (called slabs) and cutting or shaping them to create everything from platters to intricate box-like forms.
