Corlander merchants, seeing the quality of the Myzec dyes produced from Poinsettia plants have helped the Myzec set up production on a larger scale for export to nearby Jameston and the outside world. The process is much the same as the traditional methods used in Myzec homes. The flowers are boiled down and the resulting liquid is syphoned and strained all while continuing to be reduced over heat. A thick and vibrant dye is then stored in sealed clay pots for export.

Here the furnaces used are bigger, and four are utilised in a row to produce four different shades simultaneously.

A continuation from my Poinsettia plantation inspired by Drunknok's ideas in the Merrynight thread. The build turned out a bit bigger than planned (48x32) so it doesn't meet the size restrictions for the Daily Life collaboration. I needed the room to get the four furnaces in, so I don't regret it! It will be licensed as a medium factory sometime in the future as with this being build 7 for BoBS for December, I wouldn't want to be accused of exceeding my license restrictions. Don't worry, there is a dry spell fast approaching as I won't be able to (physically) build from mid Jan until early June! Probably why I'm so active right now!

Beautiful one. Just really, really well executed, and displays the whole process perfectly.

The relfections on the roof are a bit weird (rendering issue), maybe plates instead of tiles would have prevented this?

The clay pots and the colours on the table are just cool. Wonderful.

I like how you have the sorting bins with loose flowers as well it's a really great build plenty to look at while not being overly complicated.   I think a slight angle change would have reduced the glare on the roof.
