The handmade bricks<\/h1>\n\t\t <\/div>\n\n\n\t[vc_column_text]With the old style of handmade brick, each item was a one-off, manufactured using a traditional process that involves every single brick being knocked into shape by hand, giving rise to unmistakable features in terms of structure, surface and color. No two bricks are alike, and in terms of quality, they are equal in every respect to machine-drawn, extruded products. Many formats and optional special production methods provide great design latitude.<\/p>\n

Three things are required for a handmade brick or a handmade floor slab: good clay or loam, a dimensionally accurate shape and untiring muscular strength. The maker of handmade bricks uses all of his strength to bash and press the clay into its sand-coated mould, cuts off the protruding clay with a tight wire, then carefully gives the brick its final shape while the clay is still soft.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/12″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”5\/12″][vc_single_image image=”632″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]\n
