Make a Vase influenced by Linglong Rice Grain Ware

Linglong Rice grain pottery is an old ceramic method from China's Ming (1369-1644) and Qing Dynasty (1644-1911/12). The wall of an object is first pierced through with a sharp tool. After it is bisque fired  the holes are filled with glaze which melts into the hole creating a small translucent window.
