Decorating technique

Jomon pottery was made through clay coiling, decorated by imprinting rope patterns on the clay body (hence the name Jomon)

This is the definition from the second link:
"A type of decorating technique where rope is rolled over a piece while the clay is still soft, leaving the patterned impression of the rope's braid. Named after the Jomon period in Japanese ceramics, where this rope technique was often used."
Peer comment(s):

agree Tomo Fuji : I think "decorating technique" clearly explains the word "施紋方法."

design application method

I put in the word "application" because 施 also has a definition of "apply."
Example sentence:

Middle Jomon potters made full use of the tactile quality of clay, bending and twisting it as well as incising and applying designs.
