Discussion

The classification of a ceramic body as earthenware, stoneware or porcelain is settled principally by

  • A.the country in which it was made
  • B.its water absorption after firing
  • C.the colour of the applied glaze
  • D.the shaping method that was used

Answer: B

Standards define the classes by absorption limits, which is a measurable property rather than a matter of description. Shaping method and decoration are independent of the class the body falls into. A slip cast and a pressed piece of the same body are the same class.
