Bisque, as was often used in the popular dollhouse dolls of the early 1900s, is a form of colored porcelain that is unglazed and tinted before it is fired.
A porcelain, generally white, that has no glaze or enamel applied to it.
Unglazed porcelain, after first firing and before china painting and second firing.
A piece which has been fired once for hardening and then has to be glazed.
Clay that has been been fired at a relatively low temperature. It is ready to accept your design and paint ( underglaze) to make it a complete work of art.
Pottery which has been fired once, without glaze, to a temperature just before vitrification.
A type of porcelain which was the medium of choice from 1850-1930 in dolls produced in Germany and France.
The body of the tile made up of clay and other minerals. The strength of the bisque is determined by its density.
ceramic ware that has been fired once for hardening but has not yet been glazed
Unglazed porcelain dolls, usually tinted. These dolls have a matte surface finish.
A fired ceramic with no glaze or enamel. It has a matte finish, much like a biscuit.
Fired form of porcelain clay that was fired until it chemically changed or melted. It is like material of fine dishes, only without glaze or shine.
Once-fired but unglazed clay. Derives from the French "bisquet" meaning half-baked.
An unglazed clay body that has been fired once, to facilitate handling and to prepare it to receive glaze.
(or Bisquit): clayware that has been fired once for hardening, but has not yet been glazed.
The rough, unpolished finish found in unglazed areas of vitreous china fixtures, such as inside the tank or the bottom of the bowl.
When clay has its first firing in a kiln, it is called bisque ware. At this point, the clay has changed composition and can no longer have water added to it and turned back into a useable material.
French term for biscuit ware, or unglazed porcelain
Clay that has been fired but not glazed. Sometimes referred to as "biscuit." Cadmium: Heavy metal used in producing red glazes and underglazes.
The clay body of a tile, or the clay from which the tile is made.
A hard, nonabsorbent material used to make various collectibles. It is a kind of ceramic made primarily with kaolin, a pure form of clay, that is fired at temperatures approaching 2300° F.
clay fired once at a low temperature; unglazed, fired pieces of clay.
Clay that has been fired but not glazed. Prefiring also makes the tableware easier to handle. Glaze is then applied and it is fired again. 'Low' bisque firing is typical for pottery and ceramics while vitrified bisque is done for bone china and some types of stoneware. Low bisque is fired as high as possible to burn away all carbonaceous matter, yet low enough to provide enough absorbency to make glaze application easy. Glazes have special additives to make them gel and stick to the ware.
Pottery that has been fired to a red heat but not yet glazed.
unglazed porcelain ceramic
a fired clay naked polish or british girl without glazing. the naked polish or british girl "blank".
A fired (vitreous) piece of unglazed clay.
Unglazed porcelain, minus final firing and glazing.
The refined mixture of clay, water and additives that has been shaped into the body of a tile.
refers to fired, unglazed objects of clay. Generally, bisque is clay that has been fired to a kiln setting of cone 04.
This term may also be seen as bisc, biscuit, bisqueware, bisquefired, biscuit. Refers to both a preparation firing process and the pottery piece that has undergone the firing. The firing is to a temperature that brings about a physical and chemical change to clay. Atomically attached molecules of water are driven off the individual clay particles and they are fused together transforming them into one piece. This intermediate step in glazed ceramics gives bisque ware the ability to absorb water of the glaze solution causing the glaze materials to adhere to the piece while it maintains its shape. Considered to be in the "low-fire" range, some pieces are never fired above this and are therefore usually less durable. See also firing.
Unglazed areas of vitreous china fixtures, such as inside the tank or on the bottom of the bowl foot, have a bisque finish.
Pots that have been given a preliminary firing to render them hard enough for further work such as decoration and glazing. The higher the temperature of the bisque firing, the harder will be pot, resulting in reduced reaction between glaze and body in the final firing.
The rough, unpolished finish found in unglazed areas of vitreous china fixtures and tile.
