230,587. Lerven, N. H. van. Jan. 16, 1924. Stencils.-Decorative designs are applied to vases, plates, or other articles of pottery by means of a stencil formed by moulding a transparent substance upon a model of the article to be decorated and removing it from the model when set. The model, prepared with the design, is coated with a solution of a suitable transparent substance, such as a solution of cellulose-esters, celluloid, viscose, casein, or collodion in acetone, amyl-acetate, &c., and when the solvent has evaporated, the layer is perforated along the outlines of the design and is then cut through vertically to permit removal from the model. The layer is applied to the article to be decorated and carbon is dusted through the perforations. The layer is then removed and the design completed in the usual way. The model may be glazed to facilitate the removal of the stencil laver therefrom. A suitable solution to form the stencil consists of 1 part of commercial celluloid cement, 1 part of amyl-acetate, and 4 parts of acetone.
