[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 2262870, member: 85"]The hollow sound is because it is cracked. Set up about 3 or 4 pieces of pottery and porcelain that you know are cracked. Also set up 3 or 4 pieces of pottery and porcelain that you know are not cracked. Pick each piece up and tap them. The cracked ones will have a thud/hollow sound. The uncracked will have a solid or slight ring sound to them A very good test to use when you are our buying.[/QUOTE]
