Answer: The equipment that is necessary for creating ceramic-ware is clay, a kiln, hand tools, a potter's wheel/slab roller, glazing tools.

Step-by-step explanation:

A kiln is used for firing and cooling ceramic-ware, hand tools like ribbon tools are used to cut clay away, needles for etching out the designs, a potter's wheel is a type of machine that is used for shaping clay into round ceramic-ware or trimming around excess clay. Glazing tools are using for decorating the ceramic-ware with Matte finish, Satin finish, or just a plain glaze.

I hope this helps! :)

A kiln or oven to fire (heat) the clay, and a potters wheel is used in a process known as "throwing" a pot, in which a spinning wheel spins clay at different speeds.
(from notes taken in edge)

or
A potter first of all need clay to begin making any creating. A potters wheel is then used in a process known as “throwing” a pot, in which a spinning wheel spins clay at different speeds to create a desired shape for a piece of pottery. A kiln is a type of oven used to fire or heat the clay.
