How to play with the gourd plate:

For people with sweaty hands, you can wear cotton gloves or play with the gourd on a cotton plate for a period of time. If you play with the gourd directly on the hand plate, it will easily lead to uneven color and color of the gourd.
It is a long process to color the gourd patina. It is suggested that the plate should be placed one day during the plate playing process, so that the surface of the gourd can be naturally pulped. If you play with the gourd too often, it will cause the pulp layer on the surface of the gourd to be destroyed.
