| ملاحظات | About 1050, Egyptian potters found a new way to imitate Chinese porcelain. They created fritware, a white ceramic body made from ground pebbles or sand, small quantities of white clay and the glassy substance called 'frit'. The whitening effect of tin glaze was no longer needed, and transparent or coloured glazes were used instead. Fritware was used for all later luxury wares made in the Middle East, including those decorated with lustre. |
