You could try stencils with an underglaze paint, but stencils always shift around on me. Maybe someone with more experience will come along soon!

Thank you for that explanation. 1973! I am 51, so if I live to 91, maybe I will know half as much!
I regret so much that it took me so many years to find this.

Hi,
Have you thought about pressing letters in? I do that, either right on the cup, or I roll out some clay about 1/4 inch thick, press the plastic letters I bought into slab, cut the name out in a rectangle, and attach it to the cup when everything is still fairly wet.
I got my letters at AC Moore near the mosaic supplies.
Good luck!

Mark,
Those are beautiful - so perfect! Great workmanship.
Question: what are nubbins? And is slump when the plate bends? At what point in its creation does it slump?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, all!

Thank you for the link, and for the suggestions. I am going to try to make the plates using the Chinet plate method!
