Color Glazed Refined Earthenware

Title

Color Glazed Refined Earthenware

Description

Color Glazed Refined Earthenware is characterized by a brightly colored glaze. The paste is compact, yet grainy, and fired at appx. 1100-1200° Celsius. The paste is comparable to other types of refined earthenware, and these are possibly factory made given the timeline in which they were produced. This category combines the necessary classifications for refined earthenware with the presence of a brightly colored glaze, often followed by a clear, shiny glaze to prevent color chipping.
