Talk:Hard-paste porcelain

Untitled[edit]

Hello Emana, Thanks for your contributions but I think some rewording is needed. And I hope you do not consider my comments below to be critical:

Could you elaborate on what you mean by Because of its natural characteristics?
The temperature range for hard-paste porcelain is not significantly wider than other bodies; infact becuase of the increased risk of pyroplastic deformation it often has a comparatively narrow firing range
Are you sure examples can resemble adobe? I've always understood adobe to be a type of unfired clay, and therefore porcelain would certainly not share a resemblance
A slight change is wording for Hard-paste porcelain is usually utilized to make bisque to be Hard-paste porcelain can be utilized ... would be more correct
Bisque porcelain is not glass like as the former has a crystalline content whilst the latter does not
Again are you sure in suggesting opaque bright white ceramic as porcelain generally is translucent

Any thouhts?

Regards,

Andy

Hi Andy,

Positive critiques are always welcome.

I will remove "Because of its natural characteristics" because it is not apparent without much explanation.

I will remove "wide" from "wide range of temp..." because as you suggested, it is not wide in comparison to other bodies (although a few hundred degrees seem to be a lot of heat for the laymen). Would you mind adding the "risk of pyroplastic deformation" into the article?

I will remove "adobe", because you are correct that the fired white-body does not resemble adobe at all. Only once it is painted, it may look like other materials.

Thanks for the rewording, I'll use "can"

How about "hard crystalline material"?

I thought the opposite of "transparent" was "opaque". I totally forgot about "translucent".

Thanks for your help

Ceramic stub[edit]

This stub is too limiting: hard paste porcelain china is far more widespread a subject than to be covered by a single, art dedicated stub. The subject is diverse, and covers areas including antiques, industry, art and materials science

Please see my reply to your comments in Talk:Soft-paste porcelain. It's short. It's a stub. You're free to expand on this article. --Emana 19:26, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

History before Europe[edit]

I know that history going back that far tends to get sketchy, but shouldn't there be something about its development in China in addition to all the stuff about European attempts to copy it?
