Assertion (A): A dull glaze surface is not necessarily a matt glaze.
Reason (R): An underfired glossy glaze also appears dull without having crystallised at all.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Correct answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Both are true and the reason gives the distinction. A true matt glaze is dull because it has crystallised; an underfired glossy glaze is dull because it never melted properly and its surface is rough and pitted. They look similar and are quite different faults - the second is corrected by firing higher or longer, and treating it as a matt glaze would leave the ware porous and unsatisfactory.
