Simply put, it is a special type of ceramic that is one of the refractory materials that can withstand high heat. At the same time, it was able to maintain its physical properties in that kiln environment. The furniture in the ceramic kiln is made from a special type of ceramic that is highly resistant to heat. It serves to support and protect the product during the high temperature firing process.
Any potters who think that they can buy any kilns to use will need to rethink because even though the kiln is built the same in every step but in fact there is no kiln that can be fired and gives the same result. This is because every kiln has its flaws and has different details.

Oxide is a chemical compound added to the ceramic glaze to yield different properties during the firing temperature. The results appear on the surface of the glaze and other special effects including crackle glaze or crystallization.
Bencharong or the five-coloured ceramics might be mistaken as Thai traditional ceramics. There’s nothing wrong with this. However, the design is not limited to five colors. So…what is it actually??
