  • 9. Ceramic Arts
    Profile No.: 38 NIC Code: 23933 CEREMIC ARTS 1. INTRODUCTION: Ceramic art is art made from ceramic materials, including clay. It may take forms including art ware, tile, figurines, sculpture, and tableware. Ceramic art is one of the arts, particularly the visual arts. Of these, it is one of the plastic arts. While some ceramics are considered fine art, some are considered to be decorative, industrial or applied art objects. Ceramics may also be considered artifacts in archaeology. Ceramic art can be made by one person or by a group of people. In a pottery or ceramic factory, a group of people design, manufacture and decorate the art ware. Products from a pottery are sometimes referred to as "art pottery".[1] In a one-person pottery studio, ceramists or potters produce studio pottery. Most traditional ceramic products were made from clay (or clay mixed with other materials), shaped and subjected to heat, and tableware and decorative ceramics are generally still made this way. In modern ceramic engineering usage, ceramics is the art and science of making objects from inorganic, non-metallic materials by the action of heat. It excludes glass and mosaic made from glass tesserae. There is a long history of ceramic art in almost all developed cultures, and often ceramic objects are all the artistic evidence left from vanished cultures. Elements of ceramic art, upon which different degrees of emphasis have been placed at different times, are the shape of the object, its decoration by painting, carving and other methods, and the glazing found on most ceramics. 2.

  • Etch Imitation System for Porcelain and Bone China (One-Fire-Decal-Method)
    Etch Imitation System for Porcelain and Bone China (One-Fire-Decal-Method) 1 General Information Etched decorations belong to the richest, most valuable precious metal designs to be found on tableware. However, etched decorations are not only work-intensive and expensive but they also require working with aggressive acids. Instead, producers work with etching imitation systems in which first a decal with a matt underlay and a bright relief on top is produced, applied onto the substrate to be decorated, and fired. Secondly, a liquid precious metal is applied by brush on top of the relief and the item is fired for a second time. With this Technical Information, Heraeus Ceramic Colours introduces a one-fire-etch imitation system for decals. The new decoration system consists of carefully adjusted components: special underlay, special medium, relief, precious metal paste. The perfect harmony of these components allows the production of an imitation etching in one decal, which only needs to be transferred and fired once! 2 Firing Conditions Substrate Firing Condition s Porcelain 800 - 820°C (1470-1508°F), 2 to 3 hours cold/cold Bone China 800 - 820°C (1470-1508°F), 2 to 3 hours cold/cold Worldwide there are many different glazes. The firing conditions differ from producer to producer. Pre-tests under own individual conditions are absolutely necessary. 3 Characteristics of the Products The product composition and the production process determine the major product characteristics of the components of the decoration system. Testing each production lot guarantees a constant product quality. With regard to the bright precious metal pastes of the system we regularly check the viscosity, the printing characteristics, the outline of printed test decorations as well as the precious metal colour shade and the brightness of the decoration after firing on a defined test substrate.
