What is greenware, bisqueware and glazeware?
• greenware: an unfired clay form that can be destroyed by water • bisque: fired ware that resists MOST water, but is beyond the point of being able to be destroyed by normal means • glaze ware (or finished ware): ceramic forms that have been bisque fired, and then glazed (creates a shiny surface as well as ads protection to the piece), the forms are fired one last time after a glaze is applied, this causes the glaze to adhere and usually pushes the piece to full vitrification (accepts NO water)
