    Proceeding of the 3rd International Conference on Arts and Humanities, Vol. 3, 2016, pp. 15-18 Copyright © TIIKM ISSN: 2357 – 2744 online DOI: https://doi.org/10.17501/icoah.2016.3103 SAGAR BOXES AND THEIR USE: ON THEIR PAST AND PRESENT Cigdem Onder Er Anadolu University, School For The Handicapped, Eskisehir Abstract Sagar firing technique first emerged in China, during the Sai and Tang periods, as closed boxes, used for firing in the kiln. The purpose of these boxes during that period is to protect the contents from flame, ash, smoke and other materials in the kiln. Chinese ceramics craftsmen could fire high quality porcelains in a clean way and without being reduced to waste. Even, with the help of these boxes, they could produce celadons that attract high appreciation all over the world and especially in Europe. Ceramics craftsmen, who kept the Industrial Revolution alive in the heart of England, used this firing technique that they learned from the Chinese craftsmen. This technique was quite essential especially for their kiln that is heated via coal. These boxes are still use with the same purpose in today’s modern ceramic industry and art. Yet, when it comes to the 20th century, ceramic artists used sagar boxes outside their purpose, even with a contrary practice. The purpose of the 20th century ceramic artists is to achieve decorative lines, colors and effects on the surface of the ceramics. In order to fulfill this aim, along with the product to be fired, metal oxides, salts, sulfates and other combustible materials that provide a reductive atmosphere are put in the sagar boxes.

  • Archaeological and Historic Pottery Production Sites Guidelines for Best Practice Summary
    Archaeological and Historic Pottery Production Sites Guidelines for Best Practice Summary This document provides practical guidance on how to investigate sites where pottery production has taken place. It describes how to anticipate and locate pottery production sites and the types of evidence that may be found. This document also provides advice on the available methods and strategies for examining, recording and sampling features and finds of various types at each stage of the work. The different techniques for establishing the date of pottery production, and for characterising the products of a site, are given particular emphasis. This document was compiled by Harriet White, Sarah Paynter and Duncan Brown with contributions by Joanne Best, Chris Cumberpatch, David Dawson, Peter Ellis, Jane Evans, Laurence Jones, Oliver Kent, Gareth Perry, The Prince’s Regeneration Trust, Ian Roberts, Kerry Tyler and Ann Woodward. It is one of four Historic England publications concerning industrial processes in the past, the other three being: ■ Science for Historic Industries: Guidelines for the Investigation of 17th- to 19th- Century Industries ■ Archaeological Evidence for Glassworking: Guidelines for Best Practice ■ Archaeometallurgy: Guidelines for Best Practice.
