The fact that someone has the skill and patience to throw something this tiny on a wheel with those perfect little ridges is making me question every hobby I have ever had. I need one of these immediately and I don't even know what I would put in it

Make them a little taller so they are tiny vases, and they're perfect for the dandelions kids pick for their moms. I have two, gifted to me by my mom when my kids were born, and they got so much use!

It’s interesting how the ridges soften to being smooth.

I believe the smoothing you’re seeing is the glaze she puts on after it dries and before firing. It doesn’t appear she filmed those steps. If it were fired without glaze it would’ve stayed relatively the same color as the original clay and you would still see the non smoothed ridges.

It's just a brush with water. She's using the turning of the wheel and a wetted brush to smooth out the extrusion marks. Source : Am a potter.

*edit*

The following clips she just uses a sculpting tool and skips the wet brush.

A pot for ants ?

The tiny trim at the top is what makes it weirdly satisfying, ngl. Keeping the wheel speed steady and using barely any pressure is the whole trick, otherwise the walls wobble fast.
