What technique compresses the surface of clay and causes it to be water tight and have a sheen to the surface?

The technique that compresses the surface of clay to make it watertight and gives it a sheen is called burnishing. This process involves rubbing the surface of the leather-hard clay with a smooth, hard tool, such as a stone or a metal burnisher, which compacts the clay particles and creates a polished finish. Burnishing not only enhances the aesthetic quality of the pottery but also increases its durability and resistance to moisture.
