<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 10561103, member: 8267"]Earthenware is a type of ceramic, characterized by a type of clay that is fired at a relatively low temperature. Earthenware pottery tends to be more porous. Clays that can be fired at higher temperatures without slumping in the kiln are denser, less porous, and more vitrified (glasslike). The typical firing range for different types of ceramic bodies is - earthenware 900-1200C, stoneware 1200-1350C, porcelain 1300-1450C.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
