The Invention of the Small Worship Pedestal Tray from Sanohangkai (Aeschynomene Indics L.) Clay using the Pattern Stenciling Technique

Abstract

The purposes of this study were 1) to study the clay formula for making a small worship pedestal tray from Sanohangkai (Aeschynomene Indics L.) clay using the pattern stenciling technique, 2) to design the pattern of small worship pedestal tray from Sanohangkai clay using the pattern stenciling technique and 3) to study the target group's satisfaction with the invention of the small worship pedestal tray from Sanohangkai clay. The researchers has conducted a study and obtained relevant data, and then the information was used to develop the clay modeling formulas and sketches of three different ideas for the small worship pedestal tray. The drafts were presented to 5 experts in order to select the clay formulas and the pattern of the small worship pedestal tray, including other questions. The selected products were surveyed on the satisfaction of 100 target groups. The data were analyzed using statistical values, namely frequency, percentage, and mean. The findings revealed that the experts chose the clay formula 1 because the clay texture was fine, soft, and flexible and the patterns were clearly visible when pressed the pattern. For the pattern, the pattern 1 was selected because it was gorgeous, perfectly beautiful with the pattern of the flower bush, and wonderful. For the pattern of the flower bush, the experts have chosen the pattern 1 because the pattern is not complicated and has a resolution suitable for the size of the pedestal tray. The pattern 2 of the pedestal tray was chosen because it was beautiful, and it should be patterns from the same deck. As well as, the little worship pedestal tray set should be painted using the gilding method. The satisfaction of the target group toward the invention of the small worship pedestal tray from Sanohangkai clay using the stenciling technique revealed that in terms of material, products, the suitability and value usability were in all aspects at the highest level of satisfaction.
