FAQs
What does alumina-vitrified mean?
Alumina vitrified dinnerware is ceramic that has been strengthened by adding alumina and fired at high temperatures to become non-porous and glass-like. This process enhances the dinnerware’s durability, making it resistant to chipping, scratching, and thermal shock. As a result, alumina vitrified pieces are exceptionally strong and ideal for both everyday use and professional settings.
What is a reactive glaze?
A reactive glaze is a type of finish applied to ceramics that creates unique, varied, and often multicolored patterns on the surface of each piece. The “reactive” part refers to the way the glaze interacts chemically during the firing process in the kiln. As the glaze melts and fuses, it can create intricate effects, such as marbling, speckling, or layering of colors.
No two pieces with a reactive glaze are exactly alike, as the glaze can produce different results depending on factors like temperature, kiln atmosphere, and the thickness of the application. This gives reactive-glazed dinnerware a handcrafted, artisanal appearance, making each piece unique.
What is thermal shock resistance?
Thermal shock resistance in dinnerware refers to the ability of the material to withstand sudden changes in temperature without cracking, breaking, or deforming. This is especially important in scenarios where the dinnerware might be exposed to rapid temperature shifts, such as moving from a hot oven or microwave to a cold surface, or vice versa. Materials with high thermal shock resistance can endure these changes without damage.
