Abstract: A method for making a decorative plate used in a building characterized by making a transfer sheet by applying a primer layer comprising a water-soluble binder to the surface of a synthetic resin sheet, printing a pattern comprising a coloring agent and a binder, at least one of which is water-soluble, on the primer layer, making a mold for a slip casting having the pattern layer on the inside surface by shaping the transfer sheet with the surface of the pattern layer upward, pouring a mixture comprising a hydraulic material and water into the mold, hardening the mixture, and stripping the synthetic resin sheet from the resulting decorative plate produced.
