Change and reasons: 1. Slip replaces slurry as it is more widely used 2. The description “... allowed to harden’ is at best not sufficiently explanatory. "...form a layer, on the inside cavity of the mould” is more descriptive Regards, Andy

"Barbotine" is often used for French pottery (which may or may not have been formed by slipcasting) painted with coloured clays applied with brushes. I would say that is the most common use of this term in the British Antiques Trade although Honour and Fleming in the Penguin Dictionary of Decorative Arts define it in yet another waytruthordare (talk) 10:29, 11 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Slipcasting v. Slip Casting[edit]

Opening a proposal to change the title of Slipcasting to "Slip Casting" to align with the most frequent usage of the word(s) in sources contributing to the article. I personally like the use of the contraction but can't find any textual application of the term in trade literature or in the references used for the article; it should probably be changed to reflect usage in the real world. /[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/[/ (talk) 19:59, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Really? Try this, or searches like this. On the whole, "slipcast/slip cast/slip-cast" are more common than the noun. I agree the two word form may be becoming more common than the others, but all are very often found. If you want to do a proposal, please follow the proper WP:RM process.

Slip Casting in Early Jingdezhen Porcelain[edit]

The introduction of this article on slip casting currently has an uncited claim that at least some early Jingdezhen Porcelain was made using slip-casting. I included a citation needed tag since I couldn't find any English language journal articles explaining the use of slip casting in early Jingdezhen pottery; however, if there is a Wikipedian who understands Chinese well enough to find a Chinese journal article explaining the use of slip casting techniques in early Jingdezhen pottery, I would greatly appreciate it. I do not doubt that slip casting existed prior to the 18th century, but I just want some reliable sources proving this. Rigognos Molinarios (talk) 19:10, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good question - I had a quick look, but finding a decent ref is harder than expected. I'll keep looking, when I have time. Johnbod (talk) 01:15, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
ok, done. Johnbod (talk) 03:10, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
