Firing pottery can be done using a variety of methods, with a kiln being the usual firing method.

Both the maximum temperature and the duration of firing influences the final characteristics of the ceramic.

In many examples, the group to which the object belongs is immediately distinguished visually, but this is not always the case.

STEP 1

The fritware of the Islamic world does not use clay, so technically falls outside these groups. Historic pottery of all these types is often grouped as either fine wares, relatively expensive and well-made,
and following the aesthetic taste of the culture.

STEP 2

Because unglazed biscuit earthenware is porous, it has limited utility for the storage of liquids or as tableware. However, earthenware has had a continuous history from the Neolithic period to today. It can be made from a wide variety of clays.

Fantastic experience! I was totally surprised that my plan included a personal guide - I now know a lot about pottery and can even advise friends and acquaintances! Next time I will bring the whole family to the workshop.

Great service

I gave a piece of pottery as a birthday gift to my girlfriend, and she was so happy, I just can’t express it. Thank you for making our life brighter!

Happy like never before

Greate service! I was positively surprised with the quality and the attention to details. I can’t help but come back again and again. Needless to say, all my fiends became fans, too.

Great product

The Chinese, who developed stoneware very early, classify it, along with porcelain, as highly burned ware of all these types.
