- Osier / Ozier Pattern - When used to decorate porcelain, the osier / ozier pattern is a decorative technique that creates a woven or basket-like pattern on the surface of the ceramic. The pattern is created by using a small, pointed tool to incise lines into the surface of the porcelain, creating the appearance of woven strands. It adds a subtle yet interesting texture to the surface of the piece. The pattern can be applied in a variety of ways, such as in a random or structured arrangement, and can be combined with other decorative techniques, such as hand-painted designs or gold leaf accents.
