Glaze
Convincing cover.
Glaze is a vitreous layer which, from a purely functional point of view, mainly serves to provide the underlying porous body (term for a fired ceramic mass) with a waterproof, dense coating. At the same time, glazes are also used for the decorative finishing of ceramic surfaces. They are usually processed in liquid or slip form. They are applied to the body by dipping, pouring, spraying or painting.
