Question

Ceramic ware that has gone through the first firing at a relatively low temperature and still maintains its porous is

Answer 1

Bisqueware is the term for ceramics that have undergone an initial low-temperature firing and remain porous, ready for glazing and a second firing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ceramic ware that has gone through the first firing at relatively low temperature and still maintains its porosity is known as bisqueware. This initial firing removes the water content and makes the piece durable enough to handle but still porous enough to accept a glaze.

Once the glaze is applied, it will undergo a second firing at a higher temperature to vitrify the glaze and finalize the piece. Porcelain produced during the Ming Dynasty used kaolin and petuntse, fired at high temperatures to achieve translucency and strength. This craftsmanship allowed for finer and more intricate works of ceramic art with brilliantly white and glossy finishes, a testament to the ingenuity and skill of Jingdezhen potters.

Answer 2

This is called Bisque fired or Bisque ware.
